Child labor


Child labor 

Child labor refers to the employment of children in any work that deprives children of their childhood, interferes with their ability to attend regular school, and that is mentally, physically, socially or morally dangerous and harmful. This practice is considered exploitative by many international organizations. Law all across the world prohibit child labor but no country is free of child labor till date. In developing countries, with high poverty and poor schooling opportunities, child labor is the major problem. If we visit many of African and Asian countries we could see young boys and girls are work in hotel as a cleaner, farm as a labor, industrial worker, street sweeter, house worker and so on. The main reason this is child are cheap source of labor, their demands are not high little fooding and clothing are enough for them and the can be easily dominated.
