Child Labor

When child laborers are no longer of use, they may be abandoned, struggle to find alternative employment, or fall into other exploitative situations. Many organizations and initiatives work to provide support and education to these children, offering them opportunities for rehabilitation, social integration, and access to formal education to break the cycle of child labor. It is crucial to prioritize their well-being and ensure they have a chance at a better future.

News vendors (H'extra!), farm seed vendors on Bicycles ( Burpee seeds, for example) and some forms of food service still practice this form of labor. The Newspapers actively campaigned against child labor laws- as this would have impacted their Logistics! This even applied to the progressive papers who claimed to have( their finger on the pulse of the public opinion) or words to that effect. They were careful to have committess called ( Circulation managers) that does not even use the phrase child labor.- to lobby Washington. the laws were swung so they only affected articles or labor in Interstate commerce- by the way you never see kid newsies in Bus terminals or airports, do you? but normally Newspapers do not essentially cross state lines- so were exempt.

This might help but then again it depends on where you live.

If you have a talent you can always go down to a busy street and play an instrument and get paid for it.

If you dont have a talent like that then try to save up your money you own and do extra jobs around the house and get paid for it.

If its the summer you can have a lemonade stand or you can wash cars for a little pay.

If its the winter then you can go around and ask people to shovel the yard for as much money as you like.

An order for you to get a work permit in the state of Louisiana you have to to High School's office and ask them for one. Either they're going to give you one or tell you where you can get one of them from, or it might just depend on what Parish that you live in. And places just don't let you work there if you too young because you might need experience at that job, but i know for show that you can get one one of them form New Orleans.

In the US you must be at least 14 to work for most companies. You could do extra chores for your parents, babysit, walk dogs, cut lawns, or do chores for neighbors for extra cash.

Well you can also work as a soccer ref at 12 and get paid about 14$ every 45min.....unless its winter you can get paid upto 50$ every 45min.

Indeed. 2% of children dont go to school, and with the other 98% thousands drop out every year and are involved in child labor. 3.1 children in Tunisia are EMPLOYED. But they say that education of children of the ages 6-16 are to have COMPULSORY education.

(See? I wrote important words with caps :D)

Hopefully. I'm 17, and I'm planning on moving to Floida from Alaska by myself and finishing high school there. Basicly, I'm moving at the end of this summer, so when I start school, I'll only be 17 for about 2 months. I've talked about it to my parents, and no matter how much they dissapprove, they realize they can't stop me. And holding me back those 2 months would only delay me academicly. With the job i have now, and the 3 I'm planning on working during the summer, I'll hopefully have enough to support myself for the first semester, and find a suitable place to live. Overall, I'm pretty excited and coming from another 17 year old moving out, I don't see anything holding you back (unless you JUST turned 17). If you can do it, the go. There are some low points too however: You'll have to pay for everything yourself, getting a job and finishing school are huge, and finding someone whos gonna take you seriously as a 17 year is definalty gonna be hard.

No, because

Not all work done by children should be classified as child labour that is to be targeted for elimination. Children's or adolescents' participation in work that does not affect their health and personal development or interfere with their schooling, is generally regarded as being something positive. This includes activities such as helping their parents around the home, assisting in a family business or earning pocket money outside school hours and during school holidays. These kinds of activities contribute to children's development and to the welfare of their families; they provide them with skills and experience, and help to prepare them to be productive members of society during their adult life.

The term "child labour" is often defined as work that deprives children of their childhood, their potential and their dignity, and that is harmful to physical and mental development.

It refers to work that:

Yes it is possible, but its important you think about this one a little more because this is what will happen to you: Emancipation basically means you are divorcing your parent(s). This means the mother (or father or both) that love you very much will not be allowed to have anything to do with you. So, if you should become emancipated from your mother and change your mind .... oh, oh, guess what? You just can't change your mind like that. You more than likely will be a ward of the court system and this means you can go into foster care. While there are many wonderful foster care providers out there, there are some pretty bad ones too and you could end up worse off than you are now. If you mother feeds you, puts a roof over your head, loves you, cares about where you are and what you are doing; perhaps drives you to school, cares whether you get good grades or not then you should consider yourself very lucky. There are many kids out there that have no parents either due to death or the parents didn't care enough to keep their child(ren.) These are not reasons to leave home: Told to do certain chores around the house Told to come home at a certain time Told when and where you can go Told to do your homework Scolded for not doing homework Scolded because you are cheeky or swearing Told you can't get any body piercing Told you can't die your hair a vivid color Told you can't go to rave parties Told you can't drink or smoke I could go on and on, but you get the picture. Emancipation from a parent can take a long time, and it's not easy. You will be forced to go into court and I doubt you would like that one. Try helping your mom a bit more and sitting down and talking to her and if you feel she isn't being fair then sit down and tell her why you don't think she is being fair. Perhaps on one of two subjects she will compromise with you. I don't know of any state that will allow a 13-year-old to be emancipated. In order to be emancipated you have to prove to the court (among other things) that you are capable of fully supporting yourself without any assistance. You have to pay your own rent, buy your groceries, pay utilities, etc AND remain in school. A 13-year-old can't even get a job, so how can they do that?

they were treated badley if they did'nt work hard they would get no dinner.

I would say yes. I don't think you even need to ask permission, just take a swab of the child's mouth and of yours is all it takes now days.

child labor laws are important because there is need for the society to protect children against exploitation when they are trying to earn extra income for survival. the International Labor Organization is one of the most primal organization that formulated laws that protected children from exploitation and poor wages by the employees in the turn of the 20th century. The laws are universally acceptable and there is need to ensure that the children also grow up to be responsible citizens who are also healthy. poor working conditions can be detrimental either physically or psychologically to a growing mind. child labour laws set up the limits of acceptable jobs that can be done by children of different ages. Further it can provide an elaborate definition for what constitutes as child abuse and labor in hazardous environments for children in general. It is also important to note that children by right are supposed to be protected from all kinds of abuse and exploitations which can occur in the work place. it is hence a means of empowering children from bad people with cruel intentions. child labor laws also varies with different societal backgrounds and the intensity of the implimentation varies with the governments abilityto finace education and facilities that will assist the citizens to implement the rule in general. compare a case study of child labour laws in India and USA. what makes the idian system fail in protecting its minor citizens from exploitation i the work force?

Iqbal Masih was murdered in the middle of a busy road in Muridke, Pakistan.

Child labour mostly happens in developing and underdeveloped countries but it does happen in the USA and South America and although it is rare for child labour in Canada it has been heard of before. Child labour is common in China, Japan and other countries in Asia. It sometimes happens in Europe but is way more common in Africa, where food, water, and money are not as easy to obtain.
