When your parents scold you for leaving a light on you can be certain that getting internet and spending hours dong something no one understands is a far away from you. Much worse now with the library and bookstore either being greatly gentrified or closed for good.

Parents supporting a child hobby because they understand its potential value cant be overstated. Being poor just doesnt give any latent interest a chance to develop. That's the key. NGOs try to bridge this gap but without the kids parents/siblings/community understanding the value of these things, its an upward slippery slope with far more risk.
