Abani's parents, Thumpa and Bharati, do seasonal paddy (rice) field work and off-season they gather leaves from the jungle to sell to the leaf plate maker for about $11 per month total. (India's rural poor eat meals on leaf plates.) Much of this income is spent on rice wine by Thumpa who is abusive toward his wife and children while intoxicated. Now Abani is safe in our care and currently dreams of becoming a mechanic.
