¿Why the Children in Nicaragua left out the school ?

Children in Nicaragua left out the school because the poverty
http://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2015/may/19/poverty-nicaragua-children-school-education-child-labour
Nicaragua it´s the second country poorest in America, after Haiti, with a population of 6.1 million people, this country have more than 2 million of school aged children, and most of the half of all the children and teenager in Nicaragua live in poverty conditions.
Unicef estimates that a half million Nicaraguan children in the range of 3 to 17 years are not in the educational system, the majority live in rural areas of the country, or are poor , indigenous or disabled . In this country it´s so huge the level of poverty that the reports show almost 240.000 children in the range of 5 and 17 left out the school and start to work.
The International Labour Organisation’s (ILO) declared about the importance of their enormous challenge that they have about the child labor, they promise eradicate the worst forms of the child labour in 2016 and eradicate all the forms of child labour by 2020
The Nicaraguan government today has not the necessary plans to combat child labour, and protect their children’s.
In Bluefield for example (the biggest town on Nicaragua Atlantic coast) the children start to working very young in sugar canes crops, mines or quarries.
I choose this article because I thinks it’s very important know about the reality of some countries than not have resources for drives children to the school and it´s very relevant not ignore all the people who live in this horrible conditions and search news solutions for improve their quality of life.
