However, if a child has been out of school, or has been living on the street for a considerable period of time, the Secretariat does not get involved because, it reported, once such children reach the age of 14 they rarely want to return to school.
但是，如果一个孩子离开了学校，长期流浪街头，国务秘书处也就不再插手，因为据称这样的孩子一旦过了14岁就很少愿意回校读书。
