Another Child Activist-Hannah Taylor

            No matter whether you are an adult or a child, we should be ashamed of ourselves for not doing anything to stop social injustices. Adults should be the role models to the children, but what are some of them doing? Think of child labor. They force children to work, and only give few money for their hard work. They even killed a 12-year-old boy for just saying that's wrong! Is that a good role model for the children? Even 5-year-old girl felt that social injustice is a wrong thing and created a foundation. This young girl's name is Hannah Taylor, and she created the 'Ladybug Foundation' when she was 8-years-old.
           When Hannah was 5-year-old, she saw a men who was eating out of a garbage can on winter day. And she wondered, 'Why? If everyone shared what they have, could that cure homelessness?' That was the moment she got interested about homelessness and hunger. When she became 8, she founded 'Ladybug Foundation'. Through the Ladybug Foundation, she could have speeches at more than 175 schools, organizations and events.
          I was very ashamed of myself when I read an article about her. In the age of 12, what am I doing during a 8-year-old girl create a foundation for poor people? We can know something from Hannah Taylor's actions to stop social injustices. It's the fact that there's many ways to help others whether you're young or old.
                                                         

Iqbal Masih, a Boy Who Died Because He Claimed Rights

               Do you think children should work at the factory in age of 12? Of course, forcing children to work at factory 10 hours per day is certainly a wrong thing, and everyone says so. However, in Pakistan and the few other countries, the child labour is continued. While we are at school, studying and chatting with friends, they are sitting at the factory working for hours and hours. Iqbal, who started the labour when he was four years old, had responsibility to pay back to the owner of the factory instead of his father, who borrowed money from the owner. Iqbal had to work about 10 hours per day, getting 1 rupee for his long, hard work. He protested against the child labour, and he got death threats by the carpet mafia before his death.
               Working in the factory is like being a slave of the boss. But one of the human rights that UN made is 'nobody can make us slaves, and we cannot make others our slaves'. I didn't mean that every factory should stop employing workers, it means that there should be appropriate amount of labor compared to salary. I think there should be a standard of employee's ages who can work so that children can be protected and doing what they should do:going to the school, educated and playing with friends.
