Child labor
This picture shows two kids carrying bricks on their heads under the sun. They seem to be something about seven and twelve years old and they are doing hard work. It’s strange the sensation that it pass for me when I see a picture like this. I understand that sometimes it can be necessary for their families, and without it they could be in a worse situation than the situation that they are now. Even tough I can’t deny this feeling of pity.
Watching this, I automatically think about the things those kids are loosing. They don’t have a real childhood, they won’t be able to experience the good things about don’t have responsibility.
On the other hand, I think that the kid will be more prepared to the hard life that is come. If his parents couldn’t put his in the school, at least they can learn something working. This way they can be ready to improve their life, even if little.
