It is a family of seven, they have five children. The mother takes care of all of them because the man is disabled and is unable to do heavy work.

The children have both parents, but their father suffers from spinal problems. This has made it difficult for the mother to provide for the family and for her to meet their basic needs and pay school fees. The parents have considered enrolling the children in a government school, but even here they have not been able to meet the basic school requirements to keep the children in school.

The family lives on good terms with their neighbours, although they have difficulty accessing the family's basic needs due to the health problems faced by their father.

The wife does odd jobs for food to support the family.
