essay on child labour of 200 words

Here are a few points on which you could elaborate. Hope that helps!

  • Violence against children knows no boundaries. Violence cuts across race, class, religion and culture. In every country of the world there are children who continue to fear and experience violence. No country or region is immune.

  • Violence against children is never justifiable or acceptable. States are obligated to protect all children from all forms of violence. International human rights law is based on respect for every person’s human dignity. Children, as people, should receive no less protection than adults.

  • In over 100 countries, children still suffer the threat or reality of corporal punishment with canes, belts or other implements in schools.

  • In at least 30 countries, sentences of whipping or caning are still being imposed on children in penal systems.

  • Children are most frequently sexually abused by someone they know, often a member of their own family. Harmful traditional practices are generally imposed on children at an early age by family or community leaders. Much of this violence is hidden behind closed doors or because of shame or fear.

  • Frequently, children experience physical, cruel or humiliating punishment in the context of discipline. Insults, name-calling, isolation, rejection, threats, emotional indifference and belittling are all forms of violence that can damage a child's well-being.

  • Fighting and bullying are also examples of violence against children in schools. Often bullying is associated with discrimination against students from poor families or marginalized groups, or those with particular personal characteristics such as appearance or a disability.

An extremely shameful and awful fact of this world: "The income generated by working children in Guatemala is more than the total budget of the Ministry of Education.” Isn't it horrible and at the same time, extremely surprising? Doesn't this piece of information leave you spellbound in disgust and anger? It is high time we raise our voices against child labour. A country which cannot eradicate child labour is simply blocking the nation from progress because of degradation of its next generation.
