Tag Archives: child labor

she was a delicate woman,fragile with long hair and a beautiful face..
her smile was innocent,her enthusiasm obvious

she was cleaning the floor in an internet cafe.
she was 14
she was getting married at the end of this month

i’m a law student and a woman but that has got nothing to do with it.i am no one to judge wot makes her happy.may be it’s best for her.but,has she been given any option to choose otherwise.
wot kind of a world do we live in.
i know child labor is not only impractical to ban,but also arbitrary,at least she’s earnin her food.but is that all.does food become the beginning and end of a poor man’s life?
i think.
if at all,our country could provide education for all,may be there would be independence in true sense
i read in my fav book ,a question that still sends ripples down my spine
the question was “are you free?”
you are,if you can say no..if you have the freedom to say “no” then you are free and that’s all the freedom you need.
i think education alone gives us that freedom.freedom of choice,freedom to be able to say “no”

if you know of any other way then I’d love to know.
