another site says:
According to UNICEF statistics, about 42% of Brazilian children live in poverty. Also, approximately 1/8 of all Brazilian children live on the streets. The causes of child poverty in Brazil and across the globe are complex, and many researchers have theorized about the international roots of this problem. Our goal is to describe the experiences of poor children in Brazil, not to detail the possible reasons for this international issue.

Re: The children of Brazil
On Friday, July 23, 1993 eight young "street children"--or meninos de rua--were gunned down as they slept near the Candelária Church in downtown Rio de Janeiro. The Candelária massacre brought renewed attention to the plight of street children, their "elimination" at the hand of death squads, and the wrenching poverty that has come to characterize life for vast numbers of urban residents in Brazil.
