Yes, it is a major concern and shame for the society as well. Children need to go to school and learn the knowledge. But still in our world many children do the drudgery that they shouldn't have to do. And the biggest worry is situation is not improving.

I've seen many of them and what's worse is that it is a force child labor. I really feel sorry for those children who are obliged to work at such an early age. Whenever I see them, I can't help but feel angry and irritated to their parents who conceive them but cannot feed them. I believe that once a child is brought out in this world, he/she must have a happy childhood memories. Many criminal now are product of early poverty especially when they are young. I hope our society can do something for them to make their lives better. I know that those children, given the chance, would rather study and prepare for their future than push their young body to hard work.

This happens mainly in the developing countries . The Governments are not taking steps to make the education compulsory. Most of the villages are ridden by poverty.The parents are not in a position to sent their wards to school. Rather they will send them to work. this is pity. The Government should give them free educatiion, free food and give some financial assistance.

There are place where we see kids will be provided with all the fund by government but still the family status makes them to go for work what do you say..

Of course kids shouldn't work as they are still kids and have more important things to do like study other than working to earn money.
I think all the reasons is their family.
If their family know how to take care their children then this things will not happen.

of course it is better to let the children study, but sometimes the family just cant support the children going to school, and need the children to work in order to sustain the family.
