Solution By Amanda

What these children really need is a parental figure. They need someone to care for them, and love them. Almost all the children in the world have that, and these children should be no different. They need a parental figure just as much as anyone else. There are many ways to give this to them. One good idea is the following:

Create a home for some of the AIDS orphans living by themselves. This house would have the works: someone to educate them, food, health care, and caring people to talk to. But, there would be a special twist. For a very low price, tourists could stay at the home. In return for the low price, the tourists would have to play with the kids. The kids could meet a new person every day, and would get someone to play and care for them. It would be the equivalent of having parents, even if the tourists could only stay a few days. This would help them by learning from the adults, learning to talk to people, and many other skills such as how they themselves should act if they have children. It would also help them to just know that someone cares for them, and wouldn’t want to see them hurt. The children that had an HIV related illnesses would be able to enjoy every day of their life, and live life like a normal child. It would help all the AIDS orphans.
Also, the education could help prevent AIDS in the future. They could be taught about HIV and AIDS, and precautions you can take to prevent them. If they themselves has HIV or AIDS, they’d learn how to prevent it from spreading to other people. This could help change the future. Each child taught about AIDS would be one less person to die from AIDS and a couple less AIDS orphans (depending on how many kids they have.) It would help giving them a better, most likely AIDS-free life.

  1. the only thing is, would tourists really want to stay at a place inhabited by many children who have the HIV virus?

  2. Good information. I like the idea, but I think only the people with very caring hearts would go to the place where the children live.
