OUR ROLE IN CHILD LABOUR
Mirza Mohammed Hani - School:Al-Murtaza, Pakistan
Teacher: Ms. Neelum Fatima

Child labour means the hard working of the poor children under the age of 4 to 12 years. Children working on streets are forced by their parents to earn money. If anyone's father is dead or he is drug addicted then that child is forced to work. Children have to get education as it is very important and these children are the future of our country. We should thank God that he has given us parents and this nice environment.

In stopping child labour the students and the Government can also play an important role. ROLE OF STUDENT:

The role of student in child labour is that he can try to educate even his servants. We as students can persuade them not to make all these things. We as a student can easily counter this problem to help poor people and children. Everyone has the authority to study in school. If we have knowledge we should spread it to children who do not have enough money to live properly. Our responsibility as a citizen of Pakistan and as a student is to help poor people.

ROLE OF GOVERNMENT:
The role of government in stopping child labour is to build new and more schools for orphans and poor children. They should be taught free of cost if they can't afford the fees of the school. In the light of the above steps keeping in view that these children are the future of any nation and then only they will be able to run a family and get a respectable position in the society. There should be some strict laws made by the government which should be obeyed by everyone that children under 15 to 20 can't work on roads.

If we take some more steps like this I think that child labour will slowly and slowly disappear from all over the world.

"REDUCE CHILD LABOUR AND BUILD A BETTER WORLD."
