For example, Iqbal Masih who was a boy fighting against child labor at the age of 12. Sadly he was killed trying to go visit his cousins on Easter. He was shot by a 12-gauge shotgun because they didn't like him talking for child labor. After Iqbal died a boy named Craig KielBurger cared on his legacy and wanted to help. Craig decided he was going to gather his 7th grade friends to help with all the problems in child labor. Craig started his research and found out that Iqbal was sold for a $12 debt that his parents sold him for. A great quote by Iqbal Masih. "Children should have pencils in their hands not tools." R.I.P. Iqbal Masih.]]> 2021-03-01 17:31:40 UTC https://padlet.com/owenmcquatter/xpd4buvgyvvbly2a/wish/1254429401 Child Labor (by: Jakub) jakubperezsroc https://padlet.com/owenmcquatter/xpd4buvgyvvbly2a/wish/1254531482 There are many people that sell their children to pay off whatever they own to other people or to pay off bills or their debt so now these kids are getting enslaved to make furniture or rugs which is cruel if they are lucky enough to hide until they can run at the right time or just run when there is a opportunity, so if other kids are lucky enough to be born in a rich family away from the child buyers and the bad poverty areas, so the fact that some countries just don't know how to take care of their population so this is a problem with these corrupted countries these kids wont have their stable life they need, so that's why people are trying to stop child labor and give the kids a better life this is also why we have to stop child labor in these countries. This also causes malnutrition for these kids and a spike in child labor because their making a business from buying kids to make more things for a profit giving the kids a minimal wage only getting paid lowest allowed pay of the country. Overall worst society in those types of countries. This is why we should end child labor!]]> 2021-03-01 17:48:35 UTC https://padlet.com/owenmcquatter/xpd4buvgyvvbly2a/wish/1254531482 Teen Activists: Evan Prinzhorn evanprinzhorn https://padlet.com/owenmcquatter/xpd4buvgyvvbly2a/wish/1254535126 Teen activists are amazing people they create hope even if they suffer like Malala she created hope for girls that they could be treated fairly and get a good education even though she was shot at 15 she still doing it . And like even with Iqbal he gave hope to child labours even though he knew he could be killed witch he was on easter shot deliver sheep by a 12 gauge Shotgun but he knew he needed to do the right thing and abolish Child Labor.]]> 2021-03-01 17:49:10 UTC https://padlet.com/owenmcquatter/xpd4buvgyvvbly2a/wish/1254535126 Numbers In Child Labor: Owen McQuatters owenmcquatter https://padlet.com/owenmcquatter/xpd4buvgyvvbly2a/wish/1259168322 In the year of 2013 there were 168 million kids working child labor. There are 68 million kids working hazardous labor. Most of them are teenagers or just kids. They make older kids work hazardous labor because they know that little kids will mess something up and could get themselves killed. There are 88 million boys working child labor and 68 million girls. There are way to many kids working child labor and that just want to be with their family's. A lot of the kids are teenagers who would get set free when they are around 16. But, over 48 percent of child labor victims are between the ages of 5 and 11. When those kids get out of child labor they have a very bad chance of having a good job and life. ]]> 2021-03-02 16:11:28 UTC https://padlet.com/owenmcquatter/xpd4buvgyvvbly2a/wish/1259168322 Why is Child Labor A Thing? evanprinzhorn https://padlet.com/owenmcquatter/xpd4buvgyvvbly2a/wish/1259175578 Child Labor is a Thing because in some people's minds they think well we can pay kids less the average child laborer makes 2 dollars to 1 dollar a day and in CT the minimum wage per HOUR is 12.00 and they need less food clothes can be hand me downs and all in all they are cheaper and sometimes they are better for the job because they have smaller hands and are smaller for mining and they are a key strategy to mass production for cheap like thats why so many companies are going to china because kits cheaper so more profit because of child labor in sweatshops and factories and that's why we need to have everything made in America also we are fueling communists who are our enemies and are really tight with Russia and North Korea China's people are great but their leaders the CCP (CHINESE COMMUNIST PARTY)are bad. But its important to remember Chinese people are good people. ]]> 2021-03-02 16:12:39 UTC https://padlet.com/owenmcquatter/xpd4buvgyvvbly2a/wish/1259175578 Work Cited owenmcquatter https://padlet.com/owenmcquatter/xpd4buvgyvvbly2a/wish/1259218092

Jakub: A way to help the cause is by going into the country with the most child labor and enforce anti child labor around the area.   

Owen: People can easily help child labor for example you can donate to a charity for the kids who struggle working child labor. No kid would enjoy child labor or have a good life after doing it. You can’t go up to the kids in the other countries but you can donate money and maybe take a step up.

Evan: So there are many ways you can help child labor the most basic and easiest is you can donate money to organizations like WE charity and dozens more that all help stop poverty and child labor or you can go to rallies and protests get involved with fund raisers mabey even fly to main places and help lift them out of poverty witch will end child labor So go do your part and help these kids.
