Worn down and traumatized, children make up about 60 percent of the Rohingya refugees fleeing what aid groups call ethnic cleansing in Myanmar and heading to difficult conditions and an uncertain future in Bangladesh. More than 300,000 refugees have crossed into Bangladesh since August, and Bangladesh’s social services department said 13,751 children without a parent or parents were identified in a survey of the crowded refugee camps.
