Supporting what @Controversial has said.
I've been in Nepal for awhile and the attitude towards house servant (those poor children that people bring from villages to live and work for them in Kathmandu or other cities of Nepal) is appalling. You hear ads in radio against child labor and exploitation, but then people turn their blind eye when they see a child working in a house, a local "hotel", or a store. For most Nepalese, the attitude is that these kids are living better than what they would have been living had they been in their village, working all day doing household chores and working in their field.
There are numerous NGOs working for these underprivileged children but the result in not in par with the amount of donations they get. I have even heard of case where an NGO took regular kids from their parents and put them in an orphanage (I guess they pay the children's parents some cut from the donations that they receive).
