  1.  @nobodyspecial4702  there is no two sides in child labour. Child labour should not be a thing.

  2. I am profoundly sorry that work is your whole identity - and that you never were able to find a job secure and well paid enough to spare you eternal grind.

  3. No, you do not know that.

  4. Oh, look... an edgelord in the wild.

  5. I am sorry that that happed to you. And it looks times have not changed considering that quite a lot of people in this comment section are defending child labour.

  6. I have never seen one made up of kids. But then I live in a civilised country.

  7. Kids cannot consent to being exploited.

  8. No, it's called child labour. It's called exploitation. It's called being so traumatised from being put to work as a child that you are dealing with it by claiming what happend to you was normal.
    1
  9. No. You do not need exemptions to child labour laws.

  10. You thinking that doesn't make it so.

  11. You do understand that the US has made it virually inpossible to enter in a way you would deem legal? And consider this: no one is forcing these companies to exploit kids. No one. And quite often people are trafficked within the US without having come through an external border.

  12. You seriously do not understand what those mean in this context?
    1
  13. Are you quite well?
    1
  14. No. No. No. Nice try. But no.

  15. Do you seriously think the problem here is people being undocumented? Not the companies exploiting children? And what makes you think only kids who are undocumented are exploited?
    1
  16. The answer is: yes. The company should be held liable.

  17. Are you sure you are quite well?
    1
  18. Please, do not miss another therapy appointment.
    1
  19. Are you seriously justifying child labour? Are you quite well?
    1
  20. Everything is wrong with child labour.
    1
  21. No, it isn't. Don't be dense.
    1
  22. I am so sorry they failed you like that.
    1
  23. And you should not have had to do that. No one should have exploited you like that. And I do understand that you are telling yourself that your situation was somehow different - it wasn't. You just got lucky you didn't end up on night shift in an abatoir.

  24. No, it isn't. It wasn't good for you either. It was so bad for you actually that you are dealing with your trauma by claiming everything was nice and dandy. As an adult you do know better. Telling yourself that being exploited as a kid is okay is a coping strategy that protected you - but maybe now is the time to find a different one?
    1
  25. And yet here you are...
    1
  26. You mean kids who are forced into labour and have no choice to walk work harder than people who can walk away from work that is underpaid and unsafe?
    1
  27. You seriously think kids born in the US are not expoited and trafficked? Mate...
    1
  28. Just because your husband wasn't damages by child labour does not mean it's okay. Kids cannot make adult decisions - they can only make informed decisions. And one informed decision they should never even presented with is: do you want to be exploited?
    1
  29.  @wsol80  don't be absurd.
    1
  30. Seriously? You violated laws to make life easier on yourself and not blame others?
    1
  31. No, it doesn't.
    1
  32. Everything wrong with it. Someone exploited you. Someone thought it was a good idea to exploit a kid - and someone made sure to sugarcoat it so thoroughly you do not see how effed up the situation was.

  33. 13 is too young to do any paid work at all. Or to work in your family business. That should simply not be a thing.
    1
  34. You okay?
    1
  35.  @joelincolnlincoln6315  oh, kiddo...
    1
  36. Are you quite okay?
    1
  37. Seriously? Not the people who profited from exploiting them? But the countries they came from? Which, by the way, is quite often the USA?
    1
  38. Welcome to corporate america. Nothing to do with open borders (which you do not have) but everything with american companies willing to exploit kids.
    1
  39. 97% of mexican kids work almost full time? You surely have proper sources to back up that claim.
    1
  40. Are you quite well?
    1
  41. And? That does not make exploiting kids and teenagers okay.
    1
  42. There are no variables here. You clearly failed to retain and process the information given in the video. And I am sorry adults exploited you.
    1
  43. Don't be dense.
    1
  44. The work ethics you learn while being exploited is worth what exactly? All the kids learned is that adults think it is okay to use them.
    1
  45. You not seeing anyone in the video that you would read as under 15 does not mean there was no kid working there under the age of 15. You thinking kids from age 15 on should be free to sell their labour is something you should bring up in therapy.
    1
  46. So you are okay with child labour as long as you benefit from it and it is under your terms?
    1
  47. The concept of child exploitation eludes you? Or is it the whole concept of childhood?
    1
  48. Who says that the parents knew? And the real problem are the people who hires children and allowed them to work.
    1
  49. Don't be dense. And no - it didn't help you develop a work ethic. It helped you to normalise child labour.
    1
  50. They are called kids because that's what they are. Teens are kids.
    1
  51. You do not learn work ethica from exploited children.
    1
  52. Ah yes... a 15 or 13 year old surely looks like an adult - if you close your eyes and sit on the ID when you check worker against document.
    1
  53.  @cortransport  no, not mainly parents. Mainly companies who traffick workers and employ them.
    1
  54. Sugar coating that adults exploited you is a coping mechanism you might want to revisit.
    1
  55. Which has nothing to do with the video.
