A brief look at the history and ethics of child labour
Child Labour Explained
Child Labour is bad…. Or is it? OK OK relax it was a joke, how did you even build this guillotine so quickly. Whatever, lets just take a quick gander at the community guidelines and see what we need to edit out of the script so that this video isn’t nuked upon release. Okay min maxxing your child soldiers stats will probably have to get taken out.. hmm ill probably have to take out the cave mining 4 kids section as well just incase but other than that it seems like the rest should be fine. Hopefully. And before you ask yes I do write all my scripts in traditional Chinese and no its not easier or anything actually its incredibly difficult but er I just started doing it and it kinda stuck so you know old habits and whatnot. Ok lets start again, child labour, its been around for millennia, ever since people were having children by the time they were able to walk they usually were set to work. But was it really all that bad? Are labour laws really necessary and why I believe that children today are being primed by global corporations to get back to work. But before that lets start with child labour in the first human civilisations, what were the career paths for children? Well you would often have children work as farm hands, tending to crops and animals or they could be used as err sacrifices to pagan deities, yea it was a pretty life as a child. Now you could argue that being sacrificed to an ancient pagan demon doesn’t necessarily equate to gainful employment, but id have to disagree because when I clock in to work it feels like im handing my precious first born child (My Time) to a sadistic unmerciful demon (My Boss) and in return I get a bountiful harvest (a salary). This was really the case for most of human history, except we stopped the sacrificing thing, but children would usually just work as extra hands on the farm or whatever the family business was, be it undertaking, merchantry whatever. You don’t really get much divergence from the tried and true method on a mass scale till we come to the beginning of the industrial revolution, this is where thankfully career opportunities expand and now instead of just working on the family business you can do something else such as child miner, child chimney sweeper, child factory worker, child shipyard worker, child railway worker and even child street sweeper, which entailed the child to stand at crosswalks and sweep the street as rich people walked past so as they didn’t get any dirt on their shoes. Now you could look at this and think oh how terrible children being forced to work in bad conditions for low pay instead of going to school, but, without these children how would the poor factory owners make any money? Im sure most of those children would be happy to work 16 hour unpaid shifts without breaks just so that the factory owner could scrape enough money together to put food on the table for his kids, If I was a child worker id be happy to work at a factory, well not a pencil factory but other than that, knowing that I was making a massive difference to some of the most oppressed groups in society, landlords and factory owners, would have me there bright and early every morning. Unfortunately, the oppressive government started to enact “child labour laws” like the Factory act in 1833 which prohibited children aged 9 and under from working in factories, which actually wasn’t very popular with the poorest families at the time who now instead of having an income generating asset (their child) they now had another expense (their child). So now children aren’t allowed to work in the factories but alteast they are still able to go into the mines and break some rocks with the boys. (sigh) cant have in this day and age can you? Whats even so bad about child mining, oooh a little dust in the lungs? Who cares that never anyone and even if it did they all smoked back then anyway so whats the difference. But that wasn’t all, they then pushed more and more laws until now where in the UK and most of the western world a child has to be in full time education until 16 before they can get a job. So we went from the earliest civilisations employing children to now where its actually illegal, what a shame I mean ohh how terrible im so grateful to the government for stepping in and making laws that are definitely in my interest.But that’s only the western hemisphere, in developing countries as a result of the banning of child labour but still huge demand for cheaply made products you actually saw a boom in industrialised child labour kind of similar to how you saw that boom from the industrial revolution. Textile factories in Bangladesh and Pakistan now with the use of child labour supply a lot of the materials needed, so really they didn’t ban child labour all they really did was outsource it.
