This is a home.
A family of at least 6 live here. There is also a child of about 4 and a baby of about 8 months who play with dust and rubble. They live next door to Ellie's school.
Everyday a tonne or more of bricks are dumped outside their house. Everyday they all pick up a hammer and smash those bricks into rubble for the foundations of new office buildings that are being built all around this area.
A couple of months ago I stopped and gave the baby a couple of toys. A friend had also stopped and gave them some childrens clothes. We have not seen them playing with or wearing either.

They probably sold the clothing and toys. Confusing, isn't it?
Yep, certainly is confusing and those were our thoughts exactly. Just hope those children had a good meal out of it. Doubt it tho.
