To understand why child labour is still in use in certain areas of the world you need to look at the economics of the specific regions concerned as well as the economic situation of the people living in those areas.
The exploitation of children as labour normally occurs in third-world ares with extremely low income and normally affects those of a lower social status within those specific areas.
As an example you may find a family living in a rural area of India (I am only using India to illustrate the point, as there are many other areas). The average income of a 4 or 5 person family unit may be as low as 1 or 2 US Dollars a day, and that is only if the breadwinner can find work.
Most reasonable people will understand to feed, clothe and school a child on a Dollar a day is impossible, let alone feed, shelter and clothe a whole family unit.
Work in these areas is normally scarce, so if someone offers your children a Dollar or 2 Dollars a day to sit in a factory this is a lot of money; it can mean the difference between life and death.
From a first world perspective child labour is an applauding thought, as most people could simply not imagine why a parent would allow or even place their children in this situation.
The simple fact of the matter is that in most cases these people do not have a choice, and of course there are employers who are equally unscrupulous who take advantage of this fact.
In order to eradicate the use of child labour you have to not only address the issue of the employers, but also the underlying social causes such as poverty. By removing the factories and employers all this does is force people to look for other ways to fight for a living - this could even lead to a greater problem than child labour, which would be the slave trade or prostitution.
so that people who run illegal operations can make a big profit without having to pay lots of money to the children because the kids don't know that they are being grossly under paid. the kids are happy with what they can get.
Yes , of course would you like your kid (if you have any) working In a factor that a adult can also can get several injured.
