3:34 am
for it's not because i'm poor that my mattress is on the ground. no more. it's because i tend to roll out of bed and hit my head on the floor. huh. so i prefer being closer to the ground jeffrey off, but at needle. ah, adorned it honestly, those embryos he has opened the door, which i have been somewhat. they're not then some people think i can afford a bed, but that's not it lame. i've didn't. soap almost ran. we franciscans live very much by the much ozy poor, but not miserable. no, let's all stand up. oh, oh. oh. oh.
3:35 am

3:36 am
my daughter. oh, well then i got a lead. i'm in the local, i was got, i'm only doing this to give all 3 of them a better future. even if to will have to stay here focused. i'll never abandon them like their father did all life again as it is time for having to leave them behind because they're still so small. sorry, i must get a lot. of course, you must continue coming to school every day unless we have a note from your parents. i am austin, you know, now i haven't, we've lost a significant number of students, not just here, but all over the region and all over the country. what i think the laura, the migration is really affecting us to for there are fewer and fewer students every year high. lemme take will
3:37 am
a holiday. and then one last year we had 70 school children, but i knew so we were able to employ more teachers then think by said that the level of our young dot my after now we're down to 42 children. what in, by the home already that one on one invite. oh, boy, maria, any you've, most of the children had emigrated to the usa with their parents. rosario marquez along the u. s. government recently decided to allow parents accompanying their under age children to cross the border, thought i would be. so now the children are effectively being used as visas. i think i'm only yeah, that has caused many parents to take their children out of school and bring them along for the risky journey. lee. that's what's been happening to our children lately. yet gap us always give, i meant to call mr hulu.
3:38 am
despite being less affected by the gang violence, elantra has also seen a wave of migration. to better understand this, we have to take a closer look at the region. i decided my lord was salvatore. quite a marla and honduras all have a serious game problems. steady the gangs when they caught in the lunch all, no exist even alonzo. we don't have any of that. venita street, gangs from the coast around san piedra, sola oregon have tried to set up shop here, 4 acres at a spot for various reasons. they haven't been able to gain any footing, ought of. this'll no kind look at either each other. he says, and we'll lunch lunch, a little younger than them. we thank god, we don't have that problem in a luncheon. it's a mom. this is
3:39 am
a region where everybody knows everybody thought. and if a stranger arrives here and tries data on knows that they are either quickly sent back to where they came from, but be more straight into the afterlife, annoyed by them, but on them, you know, by jump on another one and does it. that's why we're better protected against the gangs. i will indict bad it's worse in san pedro sola ok and there people get rod because they don't know each other. it's more complicated there in bleak prospect. so one of the main reasons for the emigration of so many a lunch residence,
3:40 am
especially in the countryside. while i thought they were more than 1000 meters above sea level went, i'm after the daughter here. we've just finished our coffee harvest letter within. was that little joint? yes, almost. i mean, on the la football coffee, it was a little bit of that in the when we've honestly, this year's harvest was very good for us. oil has been going on, but we had real problems finding enough workers now yoletta garcia's. yeah. yeah. that. so now lemme know the old idea is as gather, bought again, there is a shortage of workers. lamar, but the main reason is that most of the young people who are usually working in the fields have emigrated, say, one doll, immediate on, but ha, they go to the united states. denila will be thinking that will be the solution to all their problems. lucille, as will pro. lemme and
3:41 am
i am okay. our la la la la bet. now a days are you. there are good job opportunities here as well. when i see there are key and went through, and i think that will slow down the emigration a bit higher than a ballpark. lemme, lemme get us. in a most of us poll farmers focus on the simpler crops, mainly growing corn and beans. gay. and look at mosque, but those harvests are basically with nothing bad or it's all gonna look and embody this door la hm. city or the last thing i tried to grow was bains. i'm building up out of sale. i looked at the thought i had to invest for 100 euros in my blog and i learned about the the meal and feed us a. ready sampling template, i want to see him,
3:42 am
but of course, as a farmer you assume that you will make a profit on the harvest that goes on, but i didn't earn anything from my veins on the contrary line, but it's okay. so i only got 120 euro's back out of my 400 euro investment. laid them down little basis. i've tried twice now at all, but i couldn't make a profit either time is good. ok, steel on the hits. i don't know what i do. i love my country and i'm happy here but gone some egleston. so for him, i guess i will have to try a 3rd tunnel possible. that meant they must a little see bob, and i'm not upset always. ah
3:43 am
a i'm afraid that they will send us back because we're all making a great sacrifice by deciding to leave bar and the can win. but i dream of a better future for my child to play. i want her to finally be able to walk normally, be almost up at a doctor told me that with surgery, she has a 90 percent chance of being able to use her legs. normally what he said a diagnosis and she has moderate cerebral palsy, said it and it's left all of her left side paralyze on that particular day and then said ever thought a lot of but i'm excited and the place cannibal is in my oldest daughter also only gave din again and again,
3:44 am
i don't really want to leave her up or any of them. they had all they all need me at the one with special needs more than the others. say. yes, sad thought your bye the i'm at the you'll, i like i can understand her gestures and facial expressions. she signals with her eyes when she is thirsty or hungry. without me, her life would be much harder. must they sat within them yet it will la nina. of course. she wants to help her daughter no later on, but there's no guarantee that she'll make it in. and one possibility is that the girls will lose their mother along the way for a felony, a collapsing malady. i mean, yeah, she's sitting out here in her girl and not knowing what dangers lie ahead came out again. no, sorry, we can't stop her. but we also don't have the resources to give her the help she
3:45 am
needs to hear when the less way more than that. but then the more no matter what are the silica ethically i'm highlighting, oh, i may not be any gangs in alonzo, but that doesn't mean residence is safe from their violence. those trying to get to the us in search of a better life may encounter great danger along the way. daniel santos, his 2 brothers set out for the us some time ago. no one had heard from them since. until one day, when the phone rang. your motto we received voice messages. william illegal give come with you. won't see your sons again until you pay. $3500.00 isn't enough. and you haven't even deposited that much of the minimum would be half price that it was $2000.00 each. meaning what they had said $500.00 won't get you
3:46 am
anywhere. no good came in for me to carry out or show. milled on, the kidnappers 1st demanded. $8000.00. all mother said, well, how do i then they went down to 2000 and the law, hampton, with you all the how friends and acquaintances pulled us as much money together as they could afford to live on in the autumn. but how are we going to find that kind of money when at the name of a local local, we live from hand to mouth, darla and mostly eat rice and betsy, unless even plenty, by making a collection in the neighboring villages could we finally managed to get the full 2000 and that the kidnappers had demanded and made a lot of kilo hey, the city and the 2 of them had been planning to leave for a long time, but i was against it that they went any way. but on the upper east, it was just sad. holloway, i went home and all i could do was cry out. i didn't know where we were going to
3:47 am
get such an amount today a lot. but when my friends found out about the situation, i but they started scraping together the money to save my brothers. got battle a battle on where they were. thank god, the kidnappers, know the ransom the phone. otherwise, we'd never have made it to the la must a brothers this course. i think that i have no, you're not. but you know, not yet. you know, i can't wait to hear from them, but i still have no word like why? the out. okay. but do you think they'll return home? okay, well i will lead them back to me with the help of god. they'll make a fabulous a look at it, but i haven't been happy since the day they left. it was especially bad when they were in captivity or not. it's just a i'm
3:48 am
with somebody i'm looking for that and i don't know that it's not easy unless patsy . no bus in this burnett's yet and they are risking their lives. no one. no, it's unwise. and i think you should return home if you can't make it across the border. ask the quiz on this because for mm ah, the town of rosario, with 5000 inhabitants, depends on money send from the us a message saying, and want to keep us audio profits a lot from these remittances. i come when we import time to play,
