AFGHANS DRESS THEIR DAUGHERS LIKE BOYS SO THEY CAN BEG ON STREETS (VIDEO)
The unemployment situation in Afghanistan is so bad that many families are dressing their daughers like boys and sending them out on the streets to beg for money.
In this video you will see one father helping his daughters dress like boys and then he sends them out on the streets of Kabul, Afghanistan.
The jobless rate in Afghanistan is one of the worst in the world and families have no other way of making ends meet than to use their young daughters dressed like boys.
