How Many




In the year of 2000 the ILO did an estimate to how many children are out there all over the world doing Child Labor, and there is about " 246 million " children out there who are working and they are 5 to 17 who were involved in the Child Labor and witch that means there were also 171 million who were involved in work by nature and hazardous to their safety, either physical or mental health and moral development. So 8.4 million children were engaged and 'unconditanol'. Im guessing that your some what woundering where they ar living well about 61% of them are in Asia 32% live in Africa and about 7% live in Latin America they also live in Europe and the U.S and Canada and other places. In Asia theres about 22% of the workers there who are children. Now you might be woundering who is starting this today? Well I can tell you who it is it's the parents becuase they are uninploded and cant work so there children go and work for them and pay the bills and work for the income. Also children do it cuase they are dissaplined more and they know that they have to listen to the older adults the children have no say in it they have to do what they say. If they dont they get on alot of trouble and they may even get wipped. So they dont have a very good life they get to work long hours of the day and they cant go to school and they dont get anything in return.
