We are Crying but no one is listening....



If we can't begin to agree on fundamentals, such as the elimination of the most abusive forms of child labor, then we really are not ready to march forward into the future.







Child labor and poverty are inevitably bound together and if you continue to use the labor of children as the treatment for the social disease of poverty, you will have both poverty and child labor to the end of time.
 "Child labor must not become the nation's social safety net."
 "Small hands can handle a pen better. Lend your support to abolish child labor."
 "Eradicate child labor and aspire for a better future"
 "World revolves around the children. Childrens' future revolves around education. Stop Child Labor"

"When you produce a bullet, you commit another sin against mankind, but when you make a toy or a book you bring hope and smile to a child."

 We must ensure that while eliminating child labor in the export industry, we are also eliminating their labour from the informal sector, which is more invisible to public scrutiny - and thus leaves the children more open to abuse and exploitation.
