More than a simple story of running away, the problem of street children has become a social phenomenon, growing over the years. Initially reserved for a certain fringe of the population (children of beggars, for example), it has infiltrated all social strata, affecting the poorest families and the most affluent social classes. Street children occupy markets and other public spaces. Deprived of family ties, they rebuild new ones in the face of the harshness of life in an often hostile environment. Their lives are also made up of violence, misery, but some joys within groups of belonging. This study attempts to achieve three goals: firstly, to take stock of the treatment of the phenomenon of street children by the local press; secondly, to determine the degree of treatment; and thirdly, to propose solutions for a better treatment.
