Regarding point 2 - that is only traditional within the last 75 years for the modernized west; prior to that it was the upper class which had such ideations regarding children. Most cultures historically have expected children to work and contribute - work and play intermingled, and then at a point, they were graduated to primarily contributions. I wouldn't get too peturbed about children working. n.b., exploitation is a different thing, I want to make clear. But historically, children contributing is a thing, and it was not an evil.
