I think you're missing the issue. We have 3 choices: 1) Provide opportunity for street children to survive, and then ban exploitation of those children. 2) Ban exploitation of children, and ignore them as they die. 3) Leave it alone. I'm saying we must choose 1 or 3. We must not pick 2. It is criminal. However, in developing countries in Africa, we have picked 2! Picking 2 is the "worst" we can do out of all possible options. It's sickening, and far too many people are still advocating for it. Authorities in Africa and Asia no longer turn a blind eye because of grant money linked to abolishing child labour. People like you have forced that on them. And the children are now suffering far worse than before. You've made yourself feel better at the expense of those you wanted to help.
