Answer 2

It's not clear what you mean.

The United States really doesn't have much of a child labor issue... the US has child labor laws to keep there from being an issue.

The US has these laws because people and lawmakers took issue with child labor... it's a form of exploitation, and is regarded as detrimental to child development, so laws were passed limiting it so that unscrupulous business people and parents could not take advantage of children.

Answer 3

If many children work, they are unable to attend school. An educated populace and workforce is the key to economic progress.
