Situation 1
Hundreds of thousands of children die or direct violence in war each
year. They die as civilians caught in the violence of war, as
combatants directly targeted, or in the course of ethnic cleansing.

impacts may be prolonged by exposures to further difficulties and
violence in refugee situations.

The Seven Ages of Man

By William Shakespeare
All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players:
They have their exits and their entrances;
And one man in his time plays many parts,
His acts being seven ages. At first the infant,
Mewling and puking in the nurse's arms.
And then the whining schoolboy, with his
satchel,
And shining morning face, creeping like
snail
Unwillingly to school. And then the lover,
Sighing like furnace, with a woeful ballad
Made to his mistress' eyebrow. Then a
soldier,
Full of strange oaths, and bearded like the
pard,
Jealous in honor, sudden and quick in
quarrel,
Seeking the bubble reputation
MY Even
BASICin the cannon's mouth. And then the
INFOS

Full of wise saws and modern instances;
And so he plays his part. The sixth age shifts
Into the lean and slippered pantaloon,
With spectacles on nose and pouch on side,
His youthful hose well saved, a world too
wide
For his shrunk shank; and his big manly
voice,
Turning again toward childish treble, pipes
And whistles in his sound. Last scene of all,
That ends this strange eventful history,
Is second childishness, and mere oblivion,
Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans
everything.
