Idiot OP! First of all, child labor is not inherently evil. It depends on the economic context. Many kids growing up on a farm have chores. In the US, child labor was regulated first during the Depression; but because of greater head of household prosperity only about 6% of youth 10-15 worked, and most of those lived on farms at the beginning of the 1930's. Instead of regurgitating Statist propaganda, why don't you study real history?
