Child Labor in Pakistan

by Faizan Ahmed, Karachi, Pakistan

Hello Yash,

What you want to know about child labor in Pakistan? The situation in Pakistan is very bad; I already told the problems about child labor in Pakistan in my project.

There are many children under 15 are working at many places:

· children working at restaurant.
· children selling flowers on road.
· children working at auto workshop.
· children are working at handicraft centre.
· children are working at little boot factory.

These were the 5 main places of children working, there are many other points where children are working.

If a child employed is a future destroyed. What a great sentence to express the problem of child labour. Child labour is a curse for that person who makes a child labour. Every child should be treated equally. We should fight against child labour. There are many reasons of child labour.

A child works if:

1) Her/his parents does not work.
2) He/she does not have any guardian.
3) He/she may have financial problem.
4) Her/his guardian may not earn enough money so they worked.

We should work to reduce child labour. Every child has a right to study and play in his childhood.Share your ideas with me.
