Child labour : A curse

Answer 1

 In today’s world, people are so engrossed in their activities that they stopped bothering about the society. Imagine…. What if…. Someone takes away your child and forces him/her to work for somebody else rather than to play in the safety of their own… into acting like cattle in fields with dangerous chemicals…To beg on streets instead of playing with cars..!!!!! Can you imagine your child like this?? Can you bear it? 

             The prevalence of child labour reflects very badly on society .More than 160 million parents have to undergo this in India every year. 60 million children in India are forced into degrading jobs every year. The working children in India are mostly engaged in hotels, building sites, factories and in houses as domestic servants. Vast majority of child labour is found in rural areas.And this, is the largest number of child labourers in a developing country like INDIA which is approximately 6-7% of today’s population. Child labour is a very serious problem not only in India, but also in the other developing countries. 

Answer 2

Child labour has become a biggest social issue in India which needs to be solved on regular basis. It is not the responsibility of the government only, it should be solved and taken care by all the parents, owners and other social organizations. It is the issue of everyone which should be solved personally as it can be happened with the child of any person.

In many developing countries child labour is very common because of the existence of high level of poverty and poor schooling opportunities for the children. The highest incidence rate of the child labour is still more than 50 percent in which children of age group 5 to 14 are working in the developing country. The rate of child labour is high in the agriculture field which is mostly found in the rural and informal urban economy where most of the children are predominantly employed into the agriculture work by their own parents instead of sending them to the school and free them to play with friends.

The issue of the child labour has now been an international concern as it highly involved in inhibiting the growth and development of the country. Healthy children are the bright future and power of any country thus child labour is damaging, spoiling and destroying the future of the children and finally the country.
