Hello!! :o) You're right - it is ironic. AND it's also sad. This is why we should all make sure that on our Christmas gift list - we add, "make generous donation to organization that helps feed and educate a third world child." Craig!! :o)

Yeah it's a pretty horrible thought to think about. While a bunch of brats are screaming because their parents didn't get the right kind of battery for a toy they got a child half a world away is looking at the quarter she got for th day and is hoping she'll get lucky and find some spare change on the street so that all of her family will be able to eat.

Well, on the bright side, we are providing those children with a way to make a living. No one said it's right, but unless the world ends child labor, there isn't much we can do, unless we knew exactly what products to boycott.

First of all if those children didn't have jobs they would starve to death. Second, they don't give a rat's a## about Christmas, it is not celebrated there like it is here. You and your world are not the centre of the universe.

yes, some toys are made by children that work to make a living, but they are not the only one that work, even the adults work a lot for a misery salary, jet the society seems to be fine with it. so may you enjoy holidays with your family and pray that everybody be blessed to have a family.

It is not an irony---it is a sickness called sin.

Probably, but what can you do? Would you rather not get any presents at all and let their work be waisted?
Sorry, I'm so harsh.
