South African children’s school holiday will coincide with FIFA World Cup. Parents and caregivers are concerned how to keep them safe during the five weeks of festivities when children left to their own devices are at greater risk of abuse. President Jacob Zuma warned parents saying, ‘Children wandering alone in shopping malls and football stadiums will be vulnerable to people with evil intentions.’ There will be anti-human-trafficking task teams in the host cities but Prest Talbot described the risk of trafficking as ‘the tip of the iceberg’. ‘The biggest risk of child abuse is often on your doorstep – from neighbours or family members.’ Many South African children whose parents are unemployed or who are orphaned rely on school feeding programmes for their main meal of the day, but the schemes will be suspended during the holiday. Pray: that children looking for food will find safe places and for more holiday camps for children in low-income areas. (Ja.1:27)
