I think it should be abolished. Children are still developing and should focus on their studies, and just growing up. Maybe some general chores around the house for an allowance, and to teach discipline would be good. And, when in the higher education age, a part-time job should be good, to start saving for college, a car, etc, so long as in it not disruptive to their education. It would break my heart to see a seven year old work, but I know that is the case in some places.
