ALEPPO, Syria (Reuters) - Mohammed Abu Rdan has known nothing but conflict throughout his short life.
Born in rural Aleppo in 2011 when peaceful protests against President Bashar al-Assad s government began, his childhood is anything but typical.
The protests quickly turned into a multi-sided conflict that has sucked in world powers, killed hundreds of thousands of people and displaced millions more and with it upended Abu Rdan s life.
Now living in a displaced peoples camp in northern Aleppo, Abu Rdan has become his family s main breadwinner after heart disease rendered his father unfit to work.
Syria s conflict has made a 10-year-old his family s only breadwinner
