Many parents were unwilling to allow their children to work in these new textile factories. To overcome this labour shortage factory owners had to find other ways of obtaining workers. One solution to the problem was to buy children from orphanages and workhouses. The children became known as pauper apprentices. This involved the children signing contracts that virtually made them the property of the factory owner.
At one time child labor was accepted as normal and children started working as young as possible. It brought money into the household.
Children had to start working at the age of six because they family didn't have money. Some of them were apprentices; this means that they don't get any money but the factory provides food and shelter for them.
Child labor is a worldwide problem that proclaims that devastated children should be teared apart from their family and then work in factories because the family does not have enough money
Children in child labor make billions of dollars worth of goods every year. This is the reason that child labor is used and persists. The only effective way to eliminate the use of child labor is to make it uneconomical. The most effective way to accomplish this is to not buy the products of child labor. Simply stated, boycot the manufacturer. Not just the products made by the labor of children, but all products of that manufacturer and all the products and services of affiliated companies.
to the president
Child laborers can bring money to the family as well as the child gets to learn a trade that can be of use later in their life. The bad thing is that they are not educated so once they become crippled from working in fields or in front of a loom their whole life, they have nowhere to go.
The reasons are because that they were not succesful with the machicens so they went to the children and maked them do the work of the machiences .
they needed money for their family
There could be many reasons why children need to work. They could be bored out of their minds and need to find something to do. They may need to help out with the family bills or raise money to go on school trips. The child's family may not be rich and have extra money to spend of entertainment, so the child might have to fend for himself or herself. They might have broken an item at a store and need to work there to pay it off. At 16 children can drive and they might need to pay for car related issues. All in all they work for the money or for helping others out.
Because there is a lot of mothers out there who do not care about there child. The only thing that they care about is getting the money that they know their child is going to get for having that baby. That is why there is so many little children that is having baby's.
