The orphan is a child left behind by his father when he is immature. There are also left by his mother, then the child is also called orphans. A child who loses his parents must be in trouble because he loses the person who is the foundation of life protection. The child who lost his father, then he lost the figure that gave him joy, and not fulfilled his basic needs. Losing a father does not mean the father has died, but also includes a father who ignores his children. While the child is left by his mother, have a more severe condition. Because the mother is a symbol of affection, attention, protector, nurse and educator for his children. Children who lack food will result in malnutrition and illness. But if the child lacks affection, then he never has a feeling of security. In addition, he will feel anxious, suspicious, failure to learn to love.
