Discussion:

2. Child Labor laws have shifted dramatically in our country. Children used to be producers in the family and have now become consumers. What do you think is an appropriate age for a child to be allowed to start working? If you believe that children can work, do you think that there should be limitations on the type of jobs that they are able to have? What do you think about different labor and educational laws for migrant children? Describe the labor laws you would want to see in effect.
