What do think about this? At first it's an obvious human rights offense that needs to be ended. But there's so much more. In my opinion, it's the caste system by any other name. In my friend's opinion, "If
you want to prevent hate and violence in the future, we have to address
10 million enslaved children and 200 million laboring children.
Neglecting them will be the source of future instability." Well, that's true too.
I have a level of discomfort confronting an issue square in the eyes when I feel it is so clearly cultural, as well as exploitative. I know I must be missing something. It needs to stop, but how? Oversight data and outside intervention are not likely to be as effective as intra-cultural advocacy and activism. That's just my take. Deriving safe societies where children can be healthy, safe and learned needs to be the imperative, in any case.
