Question

Speach on child labor for 5 min

Answer 1

Hello buddy..
Harshi this side..

Child labor is not necessary if the income from adults is high enough to provide a reasonable standard of living. Almost without exception adult labor is a substitution for child labor. Child labor is often justified by an attitude that says the children are developing good habits that will make them constantly employable as adults.

Without education, the child often has no other alternative than to enter the work force while still a minor. As a handicapped, probably illiterate child, he will be sentenced to a lifetime of poverty. Access to education becomes increasingly remote. Over 125 million children are without formal schooling. One comparison points out that the cost of educating these children would be 10 billion dollars, a sizeable sum except when recognizing that this is the cost of four days of global military spending.

For child labor conditions to improve, strong workers’ rights codes are necessary. Early studies emphasize this point by pointing out that child labor problems extend beyond long hours and poor pay and include highly abusive, sometimes criminal practices..

At last but not the least..

CHILD SHOULD BE SENT TO CLASSES, NOT TO WASH GLASSES

Answer 2

Imagine walking under the scorching heat, your feet red with rashes, your eyes swollen to an extent where they might bulge out any moment- and doing this at the age of 6, at the age where you should have been in school, studying to enlighten your future! Scary, isn't it?

We live in a country where poverty has reached levels beyond imagination. In a country where a 6 year old has to give up on his/her studies because their families are the ones who are unable to support themselves. When it is about your family you are bound to do something, because you are attached by the force of love; but are we fellow Indians such inhumane that we let those 6 year old waste their life?

The right to education is a right which all Indians deserve to get, but more than that the right to be happy, the right to enjoy your childhood is something which does not need the proof of written down legal papers! There is a lot that can be done but are doing our best? Our we just don't care, if innocent children are forcefully removed from school and made to work!?

To begin with, we need to understand that we CANNOT and absolutely cannot let children work at our homes as laborers. IF they are forced, it is our responsibility that we do not let their dreams, their happiness be snatched away! If they aren't allowed back home, without the day's earnings; give them the money but instead of making them work, teach them, educate them so that when they get mature they are aware of what is the right thing to do. It may cost you some money, but I'm sure all of us here have enough for a simple living and we can help someone else achieve that simple living, can't we?

So friends, it's time we, the future of this nation, raise our voice against all that is wrong in our country and let's start by making someone like us, a student thirty for education- who is unable to get what he desires, happy again. So I am anti- child labor; are you?


I hope this helps. Its just a vague idea; you could develop it!
