Trust me if I had control over anything I’d prevent it, but ask any of your Asian friends whether they are from the Philippines or India and they will tell you that their families hire these child labourers. That’s the custom there. They take underprivileged children to work for them and in exchange their families get money.
It really sucks, I wish our 8 year old was in school, but that’s what they do here, not just my family but every slightly wealthy family.
I will document everything and make a post so this issue gets recognition.
“It’s the norm here so we do it” I’m sorry but no.
Child labour is inhumane. An 8 year old should be out playing and having fun and not slaving away to make money for his family. Care enough about the 8 year old working for you? Give his family money, support them, and don’t hire him or any child to do child labour.
I’m repulsed.
Do you have any reading comprehension skills?
I came to this country for a vacation to visit my family and I am witnessing these acts. I do NOT condone child labor. I did NOT hire this child to work for me. ME, personally? I didn’t do THIS.
But my uncle? Other families? YES, they have been hiring these children, because HERE in Bangladesh that is a popular practice.
Now, ofcourse it isn’t RIGHT. Ofcourse I am against it. Ofcourse, I am documenting everything to bring some justice.
Honestly, this is why people don’t like tumblr anymore. Because some users take people’s thoughts and actions no matter how much of a good intention they may have and make it seem as if it’s the most offensive, grossest thing they have ever seem.
You guys need to calm down and think things through before you go around throwing out words about how REPULSED you are at something you clearly didn’t understand the meaning behind.
