This happens a lot in slum areas. In these slum areas, they have no indoor Plumbing. So, they have to deficate and urinate anywhere they can outside. Many people make "flying toilets" this is where people deficate in a bag, tie it up, and fling it. Besides raw sewage, garbage is also thrown into these rivers where people wash and drink, and children often play there too. Playing in sewage and garbage can lead to many life threatening diseases for these children, such as cholera.
