But because he is young, owners often prefer to use stronger children and he frequently goes without work as well.<\/p>\n<p>With the new babies crying continually from hunger, the woman says a childless couple approached her and offered $104 to take her newborn son away.<\/p>\n<p>According to her, she initially refused, but after several days of seeing the boy cry with nothing to eat &#8211; she decided that giving him away was the best option to provide for him and for her remaining children.<\/p>\n<p>She said: &#8216;It was hard. Harder than you can imagine. I gave my child away because of destitution&#8230; I was unable to take care of him and I could not afford anything.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I gave all of the money to my husband. He bought some rice, oil, and flour. We already finished them.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Her husband added: &#8216;We need help, we are hungry and poor.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;There are no work opportunities in Afghanistan. We have children. We need flour and oil the most, which we don\u2019t have. It\u2019s also good to have firewood.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I could not afford to buy meat in the last two or three months.
