What's so bad about child labour ?
I was reading a article "exposing" some company for using child labor and I was thinking what's so bad about that? When I was in middle school they used to tell us stories about child labor in the 1800s and how "horrible" it was and how kids would come home and fall asleep from being so tired. And all I could think was that I felt just like those kids. I was working getting up at 6 am to catch the bus to school, then at school 8 hours a day then 4-6 hours of homework, then bed and only getting 4 hours of sleep every night. And I was not even getting paid, at least those kids are getting paid, and when they come home they don't have to do any homework. In fact I even tried to get a job, at 14 and no one would hire me.
