„Mommy, take us home and we will never ask for food again!“ With this heartbreaking cry, a girl residing at a nursery in the Kallithea area of Athens tugs on her mother‘s skirt and begs her to take her and her two siblings back home. The mother, visiting to cuddle and play with her children at the nursery that is providing them with food and shelter, runs away crying as she can not afford to take her children with her.

„But, sweetheart, we have nothing to eat at home,“ she replies. Undaunted, the child continues with a seriousness way beyond her years, „Mommy, take us home and we will never be hungry again, I promise you!“
