Child Labour Exploitation

Child labor is the employment of children under an age determined by law or custom. This practice is considered exploitative by many countries and international organizations. Actually, not all work is bad for children. Some social scientists point out that some kinds of work may be completely unobjectionable, except for one thing about the work that makes it exploitative. For example, a child who delivers newspapers before school might actually benefit from learning how to work, gaining responsibility, and earn a bit of money. The problem is most of them are being exploited because their work is not paid.
Most children work because their families are poor and their labour is necessary for their survival. As well as being a result of poverty, child labour also causes poverty. Many working children do not have the opportunity to go to school and often grow up to be unskilled adults trapped in poorly paid jobs, and in turn will look to their own children to supplement the family's income.
More boys than girls work outside their homes. But more girls work in some jobs, for example as domestic maids. Being a maid in someone’s house can be risky. Maids typically are cut off from friends and family. It is very harmful because they can easily be physically or sexually abused by their employers.
