- 4. Child Labour ?States Parties recognize the right of the child to be protected from economic exploitation and from performing any work that is risky or that might jeopardize their education or be harmful to health or physical, mental, spiritual, moral or social development ... ? (Convention on the Rights of the Child "- Article 32, 1989) Child labor refers to the employment of children at regular and sustained labour. This practice is considered as an act of exploitation by many international organizations and it is illegal in many countries.

- 5. CHILD ABUSE ?Every child should be able to grow in normal conditions physically, morally and spiritually.? This is one of the several articles of the Declaration of the Rights of the Child. My mind runs to the book from which our teacher read to the class a few weeks ago. It was the story of 'Iqbal' , one child abused physically and spiritually, but in the end, fortunately managed to escape from the nightmare. Terrible images come alive in my mind. Children six, ten and twelve years old tied in chains in a wet and dirty store where the sun's rays never reach. The signs of abuse and violence are deep. Some water and food, a lot of work and violence. No right to education and play, no respect for physical integrity, no help. The law tramples all possible rights of the child. And society? Closes eyes and ears unable to react. Only some institutions and organizations make efforts to make known the problem of child abuse in underdeveloped countries, but still they do not manage to raise consciousness of the modern world. That happens in "uncivilized countries." What happens in the "civilized and developed countries?" Unfortunately, there are abused children, too. Children who are abused physically and mentally, seeking help but society turns them its back. Only some cases are known through the newspapers, internet, television. And only then we recognize that there is a problem of child abuse. Then we forget it and continue our lives as normal. Until another incident is made known and we to start talking again about the violation of children's rights. There must be greater awareness of citizens, more publicity from the press and other media on issues concerning children. Obligation of all is to protect children and their rights and not remain indifferent when they are violated in all countries of the world, authoritarian or democratic, civilized or uncivilized.

- 6. Refugees Are we are all familiar with the image? Hordes of people with horror on their faces , took the road of flight with no hope. They flee from their country not for a better life, a career or travel experience, but the hope for life. Seeing pictures of refugees fleeing from hunger and war we feel sorrow and compassion for these people who are forced to flee from their homeland under difficult conditions, without food and water, to walk for days and nights. The refugees are uprooted trees that must thrive in any soil if transplanted. Can they? Hellenism knows the taste of refugees. If we face in a racist and cowardly way the refugees, would it not be like betraying our grandmothers and grandfathers? It¡¯s our own history, our own country, our life which unite people and cultures. Do not take advantage of them ...! Treat them properly and humanely. As young people we must be fighting for a better world. DO NOT ACCEPT DISCRIMINATION! (Katerina Fysari, Chris Kalaitzis students of sixth grade, 8th Primary School of Xanthi)
- 7. True stories should not be forgotten. INTERVIEW from my grandmother Stella GKAVAKI, refugees from Eastern Thrace Question 1: Grandma, where are you from and how old are you? Answer: I am from Toptsikioi Eastern Thrace and I was born in August 1921. Question 2: How do you live in Eastern Thrace? Answer: We have lived a quiet life until we left our homes and our animals. All this is narrated my mom, Kyrani. Question 3: Tell me about the time when the Greeks were forced to flee from Eastern Thrace as refugees. Answer: In 1922, when I was one year old, happened the great persecution of the Greeks from Asia Minor and Eastern Thrace. Ten families from Toptsikioi started walking on foot and with carts to cross Eastern Thrace and settle in Greece. In carts pulled by oxen that had been loaded with wheat flour, grains and just a pot. For a month we crossed eastern Thrace until we got to the area of Xanthi. The women cooked in the pot and knead bread. Question 4: When you came to Greece where did you go? Answer: When we arrived in Greece, we settled in Tsifliki of Hassan Aga. Each family had a room. In the same area also other families had arrived from other parts of Eastern Thrace and so we built huts around this manor. Question 5: Where were you the first year, since you had no property and how did you live? Answer: When we were installed in Tsifliki Hassan Agha , men went nearby a plain, cut wood and sold them in Xanthi. We also had the animals brought from Eastern Thrace, ie cows, which were milked and we drank the milk and made cheese and butter to eat. Question 6: How were you welcomed by the local community? Were there rivalries between refugees and the local population? Answer: Our locals treated us well. In 1928 the state gave us a place to live in the village called Elmali and gave each refugee their own property of land. The state also sent workers who helped to build our homes from bricks. Finally the state gave a confession to every family. (Daphnis Dimitrios, 6th grade student)
