it bad because there are thousands and more of children in child labour is having to be put through horrible things and there not getting a good education. that means that when they get older they won’t know anything they just be adults that have education and that means if they have child then there child will have parent that does not have a education.
If they don’t get a education then it is like throwing out idiots into the city’s and think of it back in history when you ether went to school or did a family business and in this case their parent did not go to school so he’s son or daughter is probably going to be a farmer because back then it was quite frequent back in history that would mean that they would not get that much money or
It’s bad because it causes parents to lose their children because of lies told by slave owners. Sure the slave owners get free labor but it isn’t fair to the children or the parents. They tell parents that their kids will have a better future but in reality they are being taken to work for no pay.”Sometimes, parents are tricked into selling their own kids. Traffickers often promise that the children will get an education and earn money to send back home. But once the kids have left their villages, they're put to
Imagine sending your son or daughter to work just to stay out of poverty or just to get by. This is what some brave parents have to do to their children. The Fundamental reason many families in developing nations send children to work is for plain survival. Wages earned by these children can mean the difference between passable subsistence or being absolutely miserable. Although sending children way before the age of 15-16 may seem terrible looking at what children are working with dangerous tools, it's a way to stay out of poverty, and to continue on with life.
“Globalization is a process of interaction and integration among the people, companies, and governments of different nations, a process driven by international trade and investment and aided by information technology” (“What Is Globalization?”). Globalization’s efforts to produce a higher international trade and reduce expensive fees on imports has multiple advantages and disadvantages that all play a role into this major topic such as a decrease of child labor, decrease of expenses on imports, an increase of communication between countries, a loss of American jobs, and an intense international drug trade.
Child labor a common thing in the 20th century, kids working… whats next kids voting,drinking,driving and other adult like responcibilitys or privileges. Child labor the employment of children in any working position such as fast food chains, grocery stores, and many more jobs. Child labor is anything that interferes with schooling, mentally, physically, socially, or harmful to the child employe.

I feel that child labor was a horrible idea, and not just because that’s what everyone feels. I can not put into words how bad it is. Let’s just go back to the 1800’s, women with their dresses, hats, gloves, and umbrellas. Men with their suits, canes, hats, and monocles. The horse and carriages riding by, and you are wishing you knew what that would feel like, your parents can’t afford any of that stuff. You hear screaming and cursing. It's your “boss” telling you to get back to work. You have been forced to work at a sweatshop since the age of 10 to support your family. The big man throws you into the building. All of the other workers are the same age as you. All of yours clothes are dirty and you're sweating. The job is to work the machines.
You may think that trouble with child labor laws is a thing of the past, but in fact these issues are worse than ever. Even in America, a well developed country, these problems are still a struggle to many American children and their families. American kids are not the only ones who have to go through this. Child labor is active all around the world. These kids go off to their ten hour work day while their family stands by and watches. What a shame that anyone would even hire them in the first place. Children who are forced into the workforce come from any background. It is mainly an issue for families who are lower income and the parents cannot support the family, so the kids get jobs. About 168 million children worldwide (100 million boys and 68 million girls) are stuck in child labor. This accounts for about 11% of the overall child population.
The United States of America has always been deeply ideologically split on the idea of child labor. On the one side, many people believe that children benefit from long hard hours at work because it prepares them for the real world unlike the ability of school. Along with the growth of the child, they also believe that it would create large economical growth throughout the nation. Among the many people that believe this are two of hour founding fathers, Benjamin Franklin and Abraham Lincoln. On the other side of the argument, many people feel that children are to innocent to work for these long hours. They also tend to express how school and learning is much more vital to the child than manual labor, for it will help them much more in the long run. For example, in U.S. Supreme Court Case, Prince v. Massachusetts, the court defended child labor laws based on these exact reasons. The question as to which of these opinions is more valid is still commonly contemplated to this very day. In my opinion, the child should not be forced to work if they would rather spend their time studying, however a child that wants to work should not be lawfully unable to do so.
The purpose of Alto’s paper is to present a controversial view that child labor is not always a bad and that it is essential. He illuminates his purpose when he states that “more than 100,00 children and teenagers have organized unions to defend their right to work, demanding government protection and improved job conditions”(para. 2). The evidence that he utilizes is interviews from children that are working in Brazil. The children state that the reality of their families’ condition is what makes them participate in the labor market. The paper has a general audience since it is published in a widely available popular press magazine. Alto refrains from utilizing specific jargon that detracts from his main objective of reaching to individuals
I think that child labor was a bad selfish idea. I mean there was eight year olds who didn't know there ABC’s because they had to work twelve hours a day and six days a week and no breaks. With little pay And working with dangerous equipments. Some kids loose parts of their body, Have to work in cold dark areas, And rooms so hot that it wasn't healthy for anyone to be in there. And some of these kids had to go and if they didn't they couldn't eat because they used there little bits of money that they got. Kids these days they get school, food, a house, and more without work or any kinds of labor. And some kids take advantage of that and think lowly of themselves and how their way of life is. But kids these day don't even know how bad these
While most children worry about how their sport tournaments going to go, how well they did on their test, and etc, there are multiple children who worry about much more difficult assignments that they have been charged with. These children partake in child labor, which is the use of children at work, where a large portion of the time it is considered barbarous and can be illegal. In 1938, when the law of Fair Labor Standard Acts was passed, which was a law which had set minimum wages, overtime pay, recordkeeping, and child labor standards affecting full-time and part-time workers in the private sector and in federal, state, and local governments. Many people thought against this and continued to hire younger children to fulfill their work
In the world there are about 215 million children in back breaking labor (under 18).In Africa 1 and 4 children are worked from ages 5-17, in Asia there is 1 in 8 children being worked, In Australia they import 16 million dollars’ worth of tobacco yearly! That is crazy you’re five you can’t read and can barely can talk, can’t even write, and you’re working with tobacco! Would you want your child doing that? Of course not. See, it’s just not ‘right’. Child labor is an injustice for a couple reasons First off none of the children get education, for two they get worked hard for minimum wage, for three it’s just wrong!
What is child labor exactly? Well, child labor is work that harms children and keeps them from attending school. Around the world and in the U.S., growing gaps between rich and poor in recent decades have forced millions or young children out of school and into slavery like work. The international labor organization estimates that 215 million children between the ages 5-17 currently work under conditions that are considered illegal,hazardous, or extremely exploitative. Underage children work all types of jobs around the world usually because they and their families are extremely poor. Large numbers of children work in commercial agriculture,fishing,manufacturing,mining,and domestic service. Some children work illegal activities like drug trafficking and prostitution or other traumatic activities such as serving as soldiers. The other bad things that happen is human trafficking and children being prostitutes
There are organizations currently that use child labor. It could be any company that has to do with business. For instance, Nestle is a big food company, they sell products to people world wide. You may have something in your pantry right now that is Nestle. But, it has been proven that Nestle uses child labor constantly. Mostly because using children that don’t cost a lot to pay is the easier way to go. According to careeraddict.com, “In 2001, media sources revealed that the company had been using farms on the Ivory Coast in which 600,000 children had been kept in living conditions that were well below substandard.” It means that Nestle has worked kids in not very nice places.
We have all heard that child labour is a bad thing, however, lets try and think is it, really?
Child labor is something that deprives a child of their childhood. Often the work is harmful, gruelling, and takes away their dignity. Children as young as 5 years old are made to leave their homes and slave over work that is mentally and physically challenging. In extreme cases children are enslaved, raped, and sometimes killed in the workplace. Finding solutions to these cruel actions can be addressed by reducing poverty, ethical consumerism, and enacting laws.
