I am 16 years old.
I plan to spend my life helping people in less fortunate countries, and lately I've been more interested (or should I say disgusted) in human rights violations. Although I am still young and I know I may change my mind I feel like this is my calling. Like this is what I am supposed to do with my life.
So this is my problem: How can I say I want to try and help people who are treated unfairly (ex:slavery) and especially children if the clothes I am wearing are probably made by those very children?
I have looked for clothes that are sweat-shop free but they're all very expensive not to mention sold online so you have to add shipping and handling costs. Plus I live in Canada, so lots of companies don't ship up here or it's even more expensive to do so. I just don't know what to do; I feel like I'm living a lie or being two-faced.
I would really really appreciate your help here, thanks.
