Why is it necessary to avoid child labour in handicrafts?

Correct answer: For children education and safety

Avoiding child labour in handicrafts protects children from work that can harm their health, safety, development, or education. Children should not be treated as a cheap source of labour, even when a craft tradition needs skilled workers. Safe learning may be possible through age-appropriate education and supervised skill development, but it must not replace schooling or expose children to dangerous conditions. Ethical production respects both workers and children.

Option A is correct because education and safety are fundamental reasons to prevent child labour. Options B, C, and D do not provide a moral or social justification: making a product look costly, closing a market, or refusing to teach skills is unrelated to protecting children. The issue is not opposition to handicrafts; it is opposition to exploiting children and denying them a safe childhood and education.
