With the constant iteration of weapons brought by the development of science and technology and the heating up of armed conflicts in local areas, the lives of people living at the center of wars are becoming increasingly precarious, especially for vulnerable groups like children. Children themselves are in the stage of growth and cannot protect themselves. But the indiscriminate attacks of war have forced children who should have grown up in their parents' arms and received basic education to flee their homes, becoming refugees on international borders or displaced within their own countries. These children are at high risk of severe violations in and around refugee camps and other refuge areas. Almost five times as many children have died in conflict zones than fighters between 2013 and 2017, according to a report by Save the Children (Leung,2019). Action is urgently needed to improve the plight of children displaced by armed conflict.

Some Data: About the Status of Children in War

# data[].attributes.body
War poses a severe threat to the safety of children. According to a UN report on the impact of armed conflict on children, civilians are increasingly affected by the effects of war in ongoing conflicts around the world. Half are children and adolescents under the age of 18 (WCM, 2021, "Impact of War on Children.").  According to separate data, nearly 250 million children live in countries and areas affected by armed conflict. Stefan de Mistura, the former special envoy for Syria, estimates that more than 400,000 people have died in the nine-year conflict in the Syrian Arab Republic by 2020. The United Nations has confirmed that more than 7,000 children have been killed or maimed since the conflict began. In Afghanistan, child casualties accounted for nearly one-third of the total number of civilian casualties in the first half of 2019, with 327 children killed and 880 injured (ICRC, 2015, P328). Statistics show that war seriously endangers the safety of children and devastates them physically and mentally. But the scariest part is still not there. What happened to the children who survived? How did they survive in this chaotic world?

Harsh reality: The "Little Adults" and A Completely Unpredictable Future

# data[].attributes.body
Living in war is extremely harsh. Armed attacks always break out suddenly, catching everyone off guard. I came across this passage in the Red Cross literature promoting war refugees: "It was a day in late October, and we were in school. My parents work in the fields. The armed men attacked and everyone ran, including the teacher. When I got home, I found my sister carrying her baby sister. I don't know where our mom and dad are. We, the six children, left the house together and walked towards Goma because the other villagers were running. We lived in an unfinished house and begged for two weeks. We are very hungry. Finally, a couple of women from the local market led us to this shelter for lost children." Whatever the cause of family separation, these children are at great risk of not being cared for, exploited or abused, conscripted, illegally adopted, or trafficked. Girls are more vulnerable, especially at the risk of sexual abuse or forced early marriage. For infants, survival is uncertain. Without adult care and protection, they can quickly starve to death or die from treatable diseases such as dysentery (ICRC, 2015, P332).

In addition, because the survival such as food and water supplies limited, because the serious social problem, or cannot continue to survive alone, or they want revenge for family and friends, or because some ideological reasons like they want to get some honor, some of the children in the refugees had to choose to join the army on the way to seek asylum in the possible. 'When I became a martyr, they entered my number in the computer, retrieve my picture and my name, Then Print Them with the Name 'Martyr' Underneath," In 2018, Mohammed, a member of Houthi Children Soldier, said in an interview with The Associated Press (Michael,2018). In other, more extreme and brutal cases, these children are even forced into the military. Often unarmed, the children were assigned many other duties: cooking, porters, messengers, scouts, mine detectors, sex slaves, slave labor, and even suicide bombers. As a result, aid groups prefer to refer to them as "children associated with armed forces or armed groups." Children would be even more valuable to armed groups. They may be more obedient than adults, more easily manipulated, and less aware of their danger the younger they are. Sometimes, they force the children to commit violence against their families or communities to ensure blind obedience and cut them off. When Mohammed was 14, who was ordered by Houthi commanders to torture and kill a war criminal, recounts: ' 'He was my master,' 'Mohammed said of his commander.' 'If He says kill, I would kill... I would blow myself up for him (Michael,2018). 'Although they may be the perpetrators, it does not hide the fact that they are the victims in the first place. Often, the reintegration of these children into society is difficult because families and communities may fear the return of these individuals, who are seen more as perpetrators than victims. As a result, these children are stigmatized, discriminated against or even simply excluded from school. In addition, these children are often denied the opportunity to attend school, and their skills, such as leadership and organizational skills acquired in armed groups, may not be valued by the community (ICRC, 2015, P336). How many people will give these children a chance to rejoin their lives when the fighting ends or a new home can be built? From this point of view, we also need to improve social tolerance, give some people with special experiences the chance to return to life, and ensure that everyone has the right to live.

The harsh realities of war force some children to witness the cruelest humanity at their earliest ages. Prolonged exposure to such dehumanizing conditions leaves some children permanently scarred with mental wounds that can never be fully healed. Psychiatric and psychological studies have shown that war leaves enduring episodes in children and adolescents. During the war, children face (to differing degrees) exposure to two types of traumatic events: type I (sudden traumatic event) and type II (protracted exposure to adverse events resulting in dysfunctional coping mechanisms). As a result, they suffer from conditions such as anxiety disorders, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), depression, dissociative disorders (disengagement in the external world, depersonalization, derealization, numbing, catatonia), behavioral disorders (especially aggression, asocial and violent criminal behavior), and alcohol and substance abuse, more than their counterparts – in countries not torn by war (WCM,2021, “Impact of War on Children's Mental Health”). Childhood and adolescence are critical stages of a person's psychological development when trauma can have long-term effects. Cases of trauma do sometimes require mental health treatment, but these are very rare. In war-torn countries, humanitarian agencies prefer to provide psychological assistance to victims on a collective rather than on an individual basis, including creating favorable conditions for victims to recover. Usually, it takes only care and counseling, basic needs, normal sleep and rest, recreational activities (acting, role-playing exercises, games, sports, painting, etc.), and so on. In some societies, traditional ceremonies can be helpful, especially for the reintegration of children who have joined armed forces or armed groups (ICRC, 2015, P336).

More than 20 years ago, the world came together to condemn and mobilize against the use of child soldiers in armed conflict. Since then, thousands of child soldiers have been released thanks to the UN Security Council-mandated Action Plan and other actions aimed at ending and preventing the recruitment and use of child soldiers by armed forces and groups (ICRC, 2015, P331). However, severe challenges to the protection of children affected by armed conflict remain. Today, many years later, the local wars are still challenging to calm down, but many organizations, such as the United Nations, the International Committee of the Red Cross, Save the Children, War Child, are constantly increasing their social propaganda efforts and unremitting efforts to help people in the War zones and safeguard their human rights. We are doing our best to try to bring light to parts of the world darkened by war.

Here I want to focus on War Child. “Here I want to focus on War Child. “War Child is the only specialist charity for children affected by conflict. For more than two decades we've been driven by a single goal - for no child's life to be torn apart by war (WC,2021,” Who We Are”).” This is a UK-based charity that specializes in helping children who have lost their normal lives due to conflict, including but not limited to protection, education, livelihoods and international advocacy. War Child has offices in Iraq, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Yemen, Afghanistan, the Central African Republic, “We aim to reach children as early as possible when conflict breaks out, and stay on to support them—long after the TV cameras have gone home (WC, 2021, “What We Do”).” War Child will also publish some publications to the society from time to time and publish a survey report every year to show the results of this year and the latest trends in various War zones around the world openly and transparently. In mid-2019, 88% of War Child's earnings went towards charitable goals; 1,500 vulnerable families in Yemen received cash assistance from War Child; 8,830 Afghan children were reunited with their families with the help of War Child; 2,087 out-of-school children attended cram schools and received education kits in the Democratic Republic of the Congo with the help of War Child.

Artists are also trying to make people more intuitive about the war in their own ways, calling on people to support peace and help children in war. War Childhood Museum in Sarajevo has collected more than 4,000 objects from all over the world: Its collection includes items from the recent wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria and Eritrea and even from World War II. The items don't need to be expensive or rare — they only need to be important reminders of life in conflict. People donate books, toys, stuffed animals, backpacks, improvised games, drawings and documents (Hopkins, 2021). Curators at the museum hope to commemorate the special childhoods of those who lived through the war by displaying childhood objects. "The creation of this museum is important, not only for permanent preservation of memories of war childhood, but also because the museum will, unlike other war museums, document the experience of those who played no role in the start of the war, and still suffered multiple consequences. Children's stories are particularly important for their potential and suitability to serve as a basis for advancing the mutual understanding, which is essential for the reconciliation process. Ten years after the opening, the War Childhood Museum in Sarajevo will be the world's largest archive dedicated to the experience of growing up during the war (WCM, 2021, "The Idea, Mission and Vision")." This is recorded in the introduction to the website by the museum's founder.

This is my first time to came into contact with this topic, and I was distressed by those shocking data and cases, especially when I thought that some children in the world are suffering from unimaginable hardships in places I can't see. Especially when I learned that some girls have to do something to sell themselves, voluntarily or passively, to make a living and for their families. Although the whole society calls for peace, how many people really understand the meaning of what we stand for before we go to the other side of the world? As a student, I seemed unable to do anything, and I felt a deep sense of powerlessness. Finally, I decided to write a paper like this, trying my best to show some corners of the world that we usually have no chance to contact to let more people know about them and find ways to help them. Finally, I would like to conclude this paper with a sentence written in the report introducing War Child, which is also my blessing to all the children who are victims of the war: “Memories of violence can’t be erased, but children who are living with the effects of armed conflict can be kids again (Barraud,2019).”
