I told you it wasn't all fun and games. These children would be starving or not a have any form of income in the first place. They would be farming or doing some sort of other job. They saw these jobs as more fit for them than anything that was available. They weren't forced by police or the government to work their, they were forced by their countries poor economy and their need to survive.[/quote:b6a2b]

they do starve to death every day on these incomes. The fact is they can be paid more and they are not just for the almighty purpose of profit. +i dont know about you but I would like to see kids doing something else then sew a shoe together for my foot.
