In Pakistan, every day we hear different stories about children that are being killed, raped, forced into crimes, prostitution, and beggary around us. While we often like to complain, there are only a few of us who want to go a step ahead and actually do something about it.
We see viral pictures of various families take their maids to eateries and leave them unguarded outside the restaurants or on the floor but hardly few show the opposite.
And one must admit, that it takes utter bravery to actually go out and do something for the underprivileged. Nadia Jamil, a veteran actor, and philanthropist has retained the faith of numerous people in humanity when she tweeted that she adopted two street children.
Her older child, Sabir worked in a brick kiln ten years ago meanwhile her younger child Azaad was stabbed and burnt two years ago when she found them. She said that they are currently studying in a school, soaring in confidence.
10yrs ago my older ws a child slave at a brick kiln & 2yrs ago my younger ws a street child,stabbed & burned till he could not speak.2day they are both doing so well in school & soaring in confidence MashAllah! Amazing,kind,respectful sons 2 a proud Ma! Save a child,save R future pic.twitter.com/wbt7GwMHmJ

In another tweet, she said that she was astonished to witness the transformation those kids went through. She called Sabir ‘Stoic’ and named Azaad as her ‘Chipmunk’ while having a fun time with them.
Three of my four. Lazy Miru, Stoic Sabir, and my chipmunk Azaad.
