Achmed, 14 years old

»I have been here with my siblings and my parents for three months now.
We were bombed in Syria and our village was destroyed, so we fled. We only took our sleeping stuff.
I do not attend school and have only one friend, namely Ehsaan (see previous child).
Until 8pm I sell handkerchiefs. Here I am not afraid, but in Syria I was afraid of the bombs, tanks and fighter jets.
I would like to go back to my village and go to school.
I would like to become a teacher and study, but then who cares about my family?
I would like that all stick together and we get rid of Bashar al-Assad.«
