Letter To Obama/Child Labor

Dear president Barack Obama,


Child labor is a widely controversial and complicated topic. Child labor laws are enforced to protect the well being of children and to prevent them from being used and taken advantage of.
Although there are several child labor laws designed to protect children, it is nearly impossible to prevent child labor completely. Child labor in America, although prohibited is still evident in many locations. There will always be a place where children are forced to work either by consent of their parents or ignorance on their part. You should give organizations like World Education and NGO money so they can continue preventing child labor and helping out children that are in risk of being force to work. There are many institutes, organizations, public departments and international organizations like UNICEF whose main objective is to prevent child labor. Children suffer and are treated terribly. First, many children leave their homes in a way to avoid the abuse that they are victims of from their parents. To prevent this bad treatment, the government could help give conferences to the parents about child labor and the consequences that it brings. In this way, we can help prevent other children running away from home and living as homeless children. In these homes, children are not supposed to work; they can study and learn a career, and they will get a better job and a future. Thank you President Barack Obama .

Sincerely, Giolenny Bautista
