My name is Kumar,a little boy. Here is my story.

     After I left home,I got a job in the hotel. I had to wash the dishes. I was not paid,just given two meals a day. At night,I slept on the tables after the customers left. After a year,I left and walked to the next town. One day,a man,called Mr Stewart,told me that he could help me get a job in the Kathmandu. The man said that I would be trained to make carpets (地毯) and that I would be able to earn a lot of money. But the man was not telling me the truth. He took me to a big í?ctory that was full of children,mostly girls. I was only ten years old,but I was not the youngest child.

    It was like ? prison (监狱) ,and we were locked inside. We worked every day from 5 a rru to midnight making carpets without pay. One day,I saw ? halfbroken window in the bathroom,so I ran away.

   After that,I lived on the street. Some of the older boys were thieves (小偷). They ordered me to steal. If I refused,they would beat me. One time,I was caught and I went to prison for six months.

   When I came out,I lived on the street again. I was the youngest kid in the group of serious thieves. One day,my head was hurt. My friends took me to a hospital by Child Workers in Nepal. There,for the first time,I found adults who cared about me. That happened when I was 11 years old. If it wasn5t for that accident,I would probably be a big thief by now.
