Child Labor at it's Worst

A Story by emanee02

As of today, the Indian government reports their to be at least 20 million child workers in India, however many organizations claim that there are more than 50 million children working under the radar. For a world that is growing in civil rights, it is disturbing to know that although now illegal, the exploitation of children in many developing countries is extremely common.One in seven children is exposed to this kind of labor, kept from school and the chance to improve the situation they were born into. They are often put in danger too. Every year, 22,000 children die from accidents related to their work.
