Child Labour: A Solution According to the International Labour Organization, there is an estimated 250 million children working in the developing countries, of whom at least 120 million are working full time (Child Labour, 2018). This estimate of child labour is variable as what governments constitute as child labour is different across parts of the world. However, no matter which estimate we look at, it is an indisputable fact that child labour is a troubling issue. There are children who are…

During my observation, I noticed the child sitting with the parent rocking back and forth and engaging in non-contextual sounds known as stereotypic behaviours. For example, making repetitive vocal sounds. Right away, I explained to the staff if they have spoken to the parent about their concerns. The staff member shared she has not spoken to the parent because she if afraid the parent may leave the program. I asked the staff member if there is a Homecare Provider attached to the families and…

It’s common amongst countries that hold poverty or places where war breaks out through every corner. This is an endless supply of children, fighting as if adults. They don’t know any better; they’re children. However, does this mean they should be given amnesty? Or has empathy taken over our hearts and manipulated our minds to think these children should…

overwhelm their bodies. Sadly, we live in a world where there are child soldiers. Some people say that we should punish those who are homicidal murders, but I do not agree. I believe that child soldiers should be forgiven for their crimes because they were under drugs, forced to fight, and have a chance to come back to society. But what about when they get older? People should look at their horrible and devastating past as a child soldier. In my perspective, everyone who was forced to…

legislation was passed to close a loophole in the trade laws. The 1930 Tariff Act barred imported goods that were made, in some part, with child labor; the loophole was the exception that if the product was needed to meet US consumer demands, the product could be imported. This Tariff Act gave US Customs and Border Patrol the authority to seize shipments that child labor was suspected in and could block further imports.

Although many believe that parental discipline is no different than child abuse, there is a fine line that is drawn between the two. While child abuse is committed out of hatred and violence, parents…
