Even in the United States there are places like this - not that it's ever publicized - however at least in this country there IS all kinds of aid, but sometimes people don't qualify for strange reasons. I had to be in the welfare office with a friend several years ago and I overheard a caseworker telling a family that they could not have aid because they owned their vehicle which was a couple of years old SUV, but they had several children, and it was their only car. The system would require them to sell it and get the cheapest car possible for them to qualify, and even then, they would ask them to live off of the money that they got in the sale of the vehicle first before giving them any assistance. Very strange rules sometimes.

Very strange rules sometimes. These photos do exactly what they are supposed to - expose people to the conditions of these children, and evoke strong feelings of sadness and sympathy. What sucks is that there are others who take advantage of the system. There are a couple of low income renting areas where I live. They may not be able to pay the rent, maybe it's the $40k truck in the garage.

Oh I agree but you know that's probably because they are dealing drugs on the side (or some other similar way of cheating the system)

There are rumors said that some kids are kidnapped from their parents. Then the kidnapper will cut off their body part, or use some chemical liquid to change the kid's appearance.
