what is the implication of child labor in the philippines?

Answer 1

*The implication is that poverty level is so low that many parents resort to having their kids work at an early age when they are supposed to just study and play.*

Answer 2

I went to the Philippines and was shocked at how parents intentionally raise families. Their strategy is to have many children. They pay for the first children to get educated or make the children get jobs. Then, the older children get jobs to pay for the younger children's education and after about 7 children the parents retire and live off the children. Children trying to go to college will try to get relatives to "sponsor" them by paying their way.

So, back to your question, with most families having so many children as many as ten or even more, there is a serious problem with jobs for everyone especially when children are used in jobs an adult should do

Answer 3

the implication on the child first:
1. the child wouldn't be able to develop fully - physically and mentally. since the child has to wake up early in the morning do hard work like his/her parents and his fragile body would be overburdened. aside from, instead of spending hours inside the classrooms or in the playground, these kids would'nt have the chance to learn.

for the country:
since the cases of child labor are increasing, the country would soon be left with kids who are poor in many areas. thereby, the chance to give improvement and contribute to the country would be lessened.

Answer 4

It is the only choice left for some. For beggars and street children were born in the streets, getting paid for something rather than relying on alms is preferrable.

Answer 5

child labor is a reflection of the present system that exists in the country.it could add to the negative image for the country.
