Primark and Child Labour?

ok ok, i know child labour is wrong and every kid shouldn't have to work... but in third world country's, what if they HAVE to work?

lots of kids are orphans and have to fend for themselves as their government etc isn't as good as ours?

shouldn't we be a bit happier knowing that these children are in a safe clean environment, making money to ensure they eat that day? rather than going out and becoming child prostitutes, putting themselves in a horrible position, which could put themselves in a lot of danger for no real guarantee of money?

i know it is awful that they work at all... but thats the way it is in thier country, we cant change it. so why not accept that this is a good alternative rather than ban it completely?

  1. I agree with account closed


  2. Have you ever seen the conditions the kids have to endure and what little they make per day not by the hour

    Some of to S.O.B. that use child labor treat the kids like chit and they cheat them

    It makes me to Pi** of to go on sorry

  3. I think the idea is to try and press third world government's to educate their adult population enough so that they can work and take care of their children through to a suitable age for employment. There is a culture in the third world to "sell" children not only into labour but to people trafficking and into prostitution, like you mention, but as soon as you accept any form of child labour anywhere in the world you also accept the problems and dangers that come with it.

    The only alternative is to break the cycle. Education is vital so the adults take full responsibility for the economy and leave their kids to grow up in peace and safety and get a good education themselves.  

  4. It is unfortunate, But it is realty, No child should have to work there has to be a time to grow and develop in a social way and to know that there is more to life than just work,But you must survive,and when you are hungry you will do anything.
