This is one of the harshest realities in the lives of some children. Child labour is banned by law for children less than 14 years, at this age they can be as an apprentice and from 16 can be an employee. This law is not followed in many places; due to lack of supervision child labour is visible.
ResponderEliminarMeasures should be taken to stop this crime that is happening in all parts of the world, because these children also have the right to life and enjoy their childhood and not be forced to become mature as soon as they are.
