| dc.description.abstract | Child labor is one of the most crucial problems of developing countries especially in the context
of Bangladesh. In true sense, it is the product of poverty and unequal social structure. The
prevailing social norms and economic realities prove that child labor is broadly accepted and
very common phenomenon in Bangladesh where many families depend on the income earned by
their children for survival. One the one hand child is highly appreciated to the poor families
because of the income they earn, on the other hand, employers often prefer to provide work for
children because they are cheaper and considered to be more obedient and compliant than adults.
In the real practice it is a dangerous practice of children that becomes a serious obstacle to the
establishment of a glorious generation. Many promising children are dropped out of their
education from the very beginning of their life. In rural areas, most children and their families -
mainly depended on agricultural work. Most of the working children do not have the opportunity
to go to school. The children are treated as a cheap labour. They always face various types of
problems like feeding, clothing, bad working condition, unfixed salary, lack of recreation, mental
physical and sexual harassment as well. In this article I will describe regarding the hindrance
behind this miserable situation. | en_US |
