Day in a Life-Panama

The life of myself and a child from Panama are very different. Those children are faced with many dangers. They are in a society held back by the amount of money the family earns. They are faced with dealing with the threat of catching diseases. They are required to have certain school supplies are they will not be allowed to come to school. There literacy rate is quite high for what I expected. There diet of seafood, chicken, and corn is much healthier than what I eat. By the age of 40 most will be dead or be very ill. The health care system there is not very strong.  The one thing that will always persist in there lives will be the lack of a strong education fundation and lack of a healthcare system to prevent such deadly diseases from killing children. It just makes me feel bad that so many americans have such great healthcare systems but take advantage of it by killing themselves with such bad products sold by consumers in this country.
