[quote user="Modelcar"] Again...just a comment:   My view of child labor, is not based on the few photos we've looked at on this post. As a Christian, I base my opinion on what the civilized world certainly must believe.  "Child Labor" was, is...morally wrong under any circumstances. <div style="clear:both;"></div> [/quote] My only point about the photos was that they were being used to portray the horrors of child labor.  I would not be surprised if that is why the photos were taken.  In any case, I do not believe they convey anything abhorrent.  Oddly, they seem to convey contentment.  They do convey the fact that young children were in the workforce. And I understand your point about child labor being morally wrong, but why exactly would it be morally wrong?  If there were abuse, and servitude associated with it, I would see that as morally wrong.  But as has been mentioned, children on farms often worked as hard as possible.  Would that be morally wrong?  I just wonder where the line is drawn and why.  Young people are often encouraged to get some kind of work experience before they are legally old enough to be hired by industry.
