If you will look closely at this little child's left leg you will see a bad dog bite. It was really an ugly thing but the people standing around her said the doctor was taking care of it. We thought this little one was a boy but I don't think the boys wear bracelets here. You can't tell by the clothes they are wearing because when you are this poor you wear whatever sexes hand me downs you can get and also they cut the little girl's hair so short, just like boys, to help with the louse problems. That's also a favorite pastime among these poor people. Sitting around and delousing each other. I think it is an occupation for some people because you see them right on busy curbs working on the heads of other people that don't look that much like family members.
