Image: POV: "What Tomorrow Brings"

We're about two months into the school year, and the thrill seen in those smiling 'first day of school' photos on Facebook might be wearing off. Going to school is second nature to many kids living in the US, something many take for granted and gripe about when morning rolls around. But imagine a scenario where kids 'beg' their parents to go to school every day but in this scene, add onto that the dangers that come with attending school as a female student in rural Afghanistan.
