Milad, 8 years old (brother of Mirza, please see previous child)

»I've never been at school and I can not read and do not write.
During the day I'm sitting around at home and sometimes my brother Mirza teaches me something from his books. I really would love to go to school.
I have no friends, the neighbors' kids are much older than us and they don't visit any school too.
When my mom is working with Mirza on the bean fields, I take care of my little brother at home.
Nothing makes me happy and my greatest wish is to go to school.
I'm scared of my father.
The most valuable thing for me is my little brother, I like him more than anything else. I have never celebrated my birthday, but my little brother had a birthday party and he got socks.«
