lack of money for education
ReplyDeleteif the family could stay healthy and not die every season maybe they could make a little money and not be so poor so the kids can be educated
-may be a challenge because the lack of people educated, no one can teach people and the lack of money to pay for schools.
ReplyDelete-If the family had enough money to let them get an education, family members get sick and get work so that provides no money for education.

acces to an education might be hard in other countries because they might have a bas school system.
ReplyDelete*This can be a big challenge because Haitian families can get sick very easily, and it they get sick, the sickness can probably spread, and it can kill them.
ReplyDeletethe lack of money to get am education is a giant factor in Haiti.
ReplyDeleteaccess to education and health care is very low in haiti
ReplyDelete-Education is a challenge because disease and poverty restrict families from sending their kids to school.
ReplyDelete-Goverment funding or loans could help support education.
we need to learn about other countrys so we can understand how they live
ReplyDeletei agree with rachelb education is very low
ReplyDeleteI couldnt survive at all and it made me mad. Guess they live differently then us and have it really bad. They should have medacine so they dont die all the time when they get sick and it shouldnt cost money to work instead of making money..
ReplyDeletethey need more money to survive.
ReplyDeleteThey dont have alot of money so they cant get an education.
ReplyDeleteAccess to education for other countries might be hard because public schooling might not be provided in those countries. The factor of having more money would make it easier to g o to school. The work conditions could be changed by working a certain different job.
ReplyDeleteAccess to education is harder because it costs a lot of money, and because people in haiti need money to survive so they choose a job over education.
ReplyDeleteIt would be easier to access education if there werent so many military men controling every action that the younger people do.
every condition needs to be changed, Haiti is a controlled war zone!
education is hard to get because you need money to support your family so you have to have as many people working as possible, and it would be easier to get education if everyone was healthy, because if you arent healthy your person cant work and its difficult to support the family
ReplyDeleteeducation can be hard to recieve because the family needs money to support itself. The only time an individual can get an education is when there is an excess amount of money.
ReplyDeleteAccess to education might be a challenge in another country because it is so expensive and people in other countries dont make a lot of money.
ReplyDeletePeople and cpuntries could get a better education if school costed less and there was more job opportunity.

I think that the people in the game get sick too fast and if they stayed healthy they would be able to get more education.
ReplyDeletesullivan2133 I agree :)
ReplyDeleteAccess to education was a challenge because the family lacked money due to disease and weather.
ReplyDeleteChildren could gain a better education by the donation of old books, and better jobs which would lead to more money.
-S.Bruno
Education might be hard because they have to pay for school.
ReplyDeleteIt could be made easier through donations of time, money or books.
Not enough money to get education or have no way to get a education
ReplyDeletethey could get a better education if there were more job openings and if there were schools so they could learn

Education might be hard because they have to pay for school
ReplyDeleteor maybe just maybe they cant pay for stuff that you need to have in school
family could stay healthy and not die every season maybe they could make a little money and not be so poor
ReplyDeletewho knows
i think Samantha Gengo is right on not "enough money to get education or have a way to get a education"
ReplyDeletei agre with josh kenn education is achallenge.
ReplyDelete-Alex Amado-
the amount spent in haiti is about $2 per day..
ReplyDelete-Alex Amado-
It is hard to obtain an education in other countries due to money problems. Their health spends the little money they do have.
ReplyDeleteChristina Braccia
access to an education might be harder in another country because they don't have as many schools or space in schools. To make it easier they should have more schools
ReplyDelete--Heather Bower
Access to an education in others countries could be difficult because school is not free. Even in America, we must pay taxes in order to keep public schools open. So in order for schools to run, there are expenses, but in a country where money is scarce, education is not on everyone's mind.
ReplyDeleteWhy might access to education be a challenge in another country? *Because families don't have enough money to keep themselves healthy, so education isn't really an option
ReplyDeleteWhat factors would make it easier for the children in the game to gain access to
education? *if everyone else in the family worked and one kid went to school then it could be affordable
What conditions could be changed and how? *free hospitals because even though the family is just scrapping by, being healthy keeps them alive
A language barrier makes entrance into a new country difficult.
ReplyDeleteCheap or no cost schooling would be a good way to make everyone more educated. It may be bad schooling, but it will give kids a chance to get out.
Good point Billy, it would be tough
ReplyDeleteThe lack of money to get an education is a huge factorrrr
ReplyDeleteWhen you lack money its hard to pay for education. Free education, and better paying jobs.
ReplyDeletethey had a lack of money for education
ReplyDeletethey should build a better school.
ReplyDeleteA language barrier makes entrance into a new country difficult.
ReplyDeletegood point adam
1. Because families don't have enough money to keep themselves healthy, so education isn't really an option
ReplyDelete2. If everyone else in the family worked and one kid went to school then it could be affordable
3. Free hospitals because even though the family is just scrapping by, being healthy keeps them alive
we could use to know more information about other counrtys so we know how they live
ReplyDeleteits hard to get a job
ReplyDeleteit is very hard for people to get money or an education decause the chance of desie is so high
ReplyDeletetry living without money, then trying to come out on top and then you know the point of the game
ReplyDeletethey should build a better school.
ReplyDeletethey need better living conditions
ReplyDeleteAccess to education for other countries might be hard because public schooling might not be provided in those countries. The factor of having more money would make it easier to g o to school. The work conditions could be changed by working a certain different job.
ReplyDeleteIts hard to get the kids an education because theres so little money and they are often getting sick
ReplyDeleteThis can be a challenge because Haitian families can get sick very easily, and it they get sick, the sickness can probably spread rapidly.
ReplyDeletesomething that needs to be changed is working conditions it makes it so hard for people to work in other countries
