In social studies, we are learning about child labour. We were given the ten worst country that has to do with child labour, and were told to use my maps and make descriptions about them. Here is my work about child labour.
_________________________________________________________________________________
As humans, we all have our own rights, and one of those rights is the right to education, and in most countries, kids and children that are our age or even younger are not able to have an education. Most children are expected to work by the age of 5 and work for 20 hours for a little bit of money because they need to help their family with food and clothes. All of those children do different types of working, which includes Mining, Agriculture, carpet making, brick making, etc. Child labour has been around since the late 1700’s and early 1800’s, and the population of kids in child labour have been growing bigger and bigger ever since. Studies have shown that there are 200 million children that are forced to work, and there are over 100 countries that deal with child labor. All those kids have a right to protest against child labour, they all have a right to education, they have a right to freedom, but when they stand up for what’s right it can get them into a dangerous situation, it can get them killed. We should help those kids in need and make a change, so they can get the rights they deserve.
