It isn't either the streets OR sweatshops - if children were not made to work, the work would have to be done by adults. If the adults are paid a decent wage, then they don't need the children to also work and then the children can go to school.
With education, the children can then make a better life for that generation and if their parents earn proper money, they can invest it in the community, thus enriching it.
I agree... this is a much better condition for the kids anyways. Very true that if they didn't work then they would be on the streets begging or stealing or prostituting. Besides they are dirty indian people anyways so who cares... they are the trash of the world and the world is ran by corruption anyways.
Hey kids... thats a size 13 shoe and a 32 pant... get back to work!
mrmaelis (and others), why is working in a sweatshop so much better than being on the streets? I suppose it depends on the sweatshop and the streets. Some sweatshops just pay a small amount; whereas others chain their workers up, ruin their health, don't provide any medical leave or benefits, and allow supervisors to sexually molest workers. I can guess there's a "scale of depravity" to cover the whole range of terrible working conditions faced by people in a sweatshop.
In the west; the only thing worse than a starving child is a child that works.. not to say that I wouldn't wan't to see them @ school, but rather a sweatshop then the streetz...
To the people that are comforting themselves by comparing the sweatshop to our industrial revolution OK, Weve been through that We should use our experience and avoid that thousand of lives are taken by overworking and low wages, child labour Not even a PHD economist is going to make me believe that large corporation cannot offer decent working condition that would respect humans There's a way of making $ without stealing lives of innocent children. Let's advocate for them, cause we know better.

That's why child labour/sweatshops are so bad.

Maybe some of you prefer to earn your living by being sex slaves, but I certainly do not.
