The following are a few differences between the lives of boys from Africa and the United States: Lives of boys in Africa: The boys in Africa are deprived of a lot of facilities that are easily available for the boys for most other western countries. The struggle of the boys in Africa starts right from food. Most African countries are still impoverished and fail to dispense good services and schemes for the youth of the country which makes it difficult for the boys to thrive financially and socially. Lives of boys in the United States: The boys in America are way too privileged if compared to the boys in Africa. The governments in the states and the federal government take care of most things and make the lives of the citizens simple. The availability of opportunities for learning and earning in the United States is consistent and reliable which makes it less stressful for the boys in the United States to lead their lives.
