This story highlights a girl only 12 years old. She is working for her parents to make them money. She works strenuous 16 hour days with little or no breaks. She was taken out of school and is now working in carpet factory. They say 1.6 million children in Nepal work in carpet factories. This is wrong and cruel. Average girls her age go to school and play with friends. I think there need to be serious changes to Nepal's child labor laws and severe punishment for chose forcing young children to work. What do you guys think should be done to help and protect these children?http://http://www.cnn.com/2013/08/14/world/asia/nepal-child-labor/index.html?iid=article_sidebar
