2. There are 37 counties with child soldier.

What are childern used for?


Childern are used to clear landmines. They are not trained to destory them. They just send them out and if they blow up then others know not to go out there. Another thing they are used for is to be a human shield. They are told to stand in frount of the line, so the people behind them can not get shot.
