FOUR out of ten children want to ask Santa to keep other kids safe this Christmas, says children’s charity, the NSPCC.
Instead of asking for more obvious choices like a Hatchimal or a hoverboard, research from NSPCC’s Letter
From Santa campaign has revealed that 39% of London children would ask Santa to protect young people this festive season.
Children also gave responses such as “get rid of all guns” and “stop all wars”, showing how aware you are of how other young people are suffering across the world, even as Christmas approaches.
Of the hundreds of young people aged between 6 and 11 that were questioned, 19% said they would ask Santa to stop children being hurt in war – with many commenting on the young people suffering in Syria, who are at risk because of the fighting there.

Peace at last.. Is what I'd like to say by 2020

Poverty is best although a peaceful world is aswell because of Donald Trump (a nasty man) and ISIS

With any luck, Santa may be able to make a huge difference to the world this year.

What have we humans done to this world?! Maybe, if it's still possible we can stop all the horrible things in the world and make it peaceful and nice again.

Provide education for everyone.
wren · 8 years ago
Once we have peace we can start working on other issues like equality, poverty, education and climate change. And there wouldn't be refuggees if there was peace!

The world should be more peaceful. Because of wars, people are missing out on education and food becomes more and more limited.
Jewab99 · 8 years ago
I think the most important thing on this list is education because everyone has the right to learn.

If you have peace it is then easier to change all of the other problems.

SunChip · 8 years ago
I'd like Santa to work his magic and there be equality for everyone. This is then inclusive that everyone should get educatin because this is a main issue to inequality. Boys can go to school where girls can't.

Peace. I would like it to be peaceful now, but also when we are grown up and have our own children, I don't think they should be surrounded by all the things we have today.

I said make equality for all because most wars are caused because of people thinking they need to be the best

If the world is peaceful, war will not occur, so refugees will have a home, and there will be equality!

If you were to make the world more peaceful, it would mean that everyone would be happy, meaning that there would be less bullying and mental health problems. ? Happy new year everyone! ??
bluelion · 8 years ago
I voted for make the world a peaceful place because when this happens, refugees can have somewhere to live. None of the other things above could happen until the world is a peaceful place. It would be great, all the wars ended, unfortunately the world is not a big peaceful place. But we can change that. That is the reason I voted for a peaceful place.
oliverj · 8 years ago
Make the word a peaceful place!
Sparkle09 · 8 years ago
I would ask him to make the world a peaceful place which also solves another point-because then refugees can go home and wont need to immigrate .

PEACEFUL PLACE!
mroseholt · 8 years ago
EQUALITY is the most important as it covers fixing poverty, if all of humanity are equal (in a communist kind of sense I suppose...) then no one would be richer than anyone else, or at least no-one would be in poverty. Also, equality means education rights too. Peace may then occur as no one will feel the need to fight for anything as they have everything they need provided for.
However, I feel peace is impossible: humans naturally experience jealousy and anger, which are the main drives for violent acts outside of mental illness. Peace would be amazing-don't get me wrong. I just don't think it is possible in humanity.

Everyone Should have a right for education/school
pudsyears · 8 years ago
I think personally we should make the world a peaceful place , but we should give all refugees a safe home
and also provide everyone with a education. How do people choose.

I think it is so important that refugees have a safe place- we don't know how lucky we are and people need to realise that so many people are in need of a safe place

We need peacefulness
redindian9 · 7 years ago
I wasn't sure what to vote for at first, but then I decided to vote for equality, because that's sort of a few options rolled into one. Everyone would get education, they would get treated equally, and hopefully that would make world peace too. There is a lot of news of violence, so I wish there really WAS world peace.
