Child labour

                           

What is child labour? what countries are practicing these? In what ways are children are used in working? How are children protected from the smugglers?

Child labour is when kids are taken from adults and are forced to do work and  children are beaten up. Child labour are everywhere in the world like in Ivory coast, children are working hard. The international organization think that over 215 million kids at the age of 5 and 17 are in child labour.

Children work long hours in factory and paid for very little money and paid less than adult pay. Children are small and fit in small places that is why they are good to work in factories and mines. The children are very poor and their family wants them to work to help buy food. They don’t go to school.

Many places in the They don’t eat good food or nor good care given to them by their employers.  They work in dangerous environment and forced to do work, sometimes asked to fight in conflict or war, or used in drug trafficking, and used as slaves.

Child labour should stop because children are abused, not getting good food and are paid a very little amount. Children should be set free to their families and should not be suffering.
