I think ,we can't say a child is a labor,he/she is in the condition of labor.This labor is not a real labor,he/she is forced to entered into the laborious work. What do you think about that?
Paul: In the United States, child labor is generally when a person under the age of 16 is employed at a job for pay. The earliest age a person can legally work for pay in the United States is age 16. One exception is a farming or ranching family. The children born on a farm or ranch are often given chores at a young age. They may or may not be paid, but usually not. If they are paid for their chores, it is usually considered an allowance rather than a wage.
