Why is making children do hazardous work for earning wrong?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: It harms education, health and childhood rights
Hazardous work can harm a child's physical and mental health and can prevent access to education and a safe childhood. Therefore, making children do such work for earning is exploitation, not training. Option D is incorrect because safe training is age-appropriate, supervised and free from harm. Exam tip: In child-labour questions, look for effects on health, education, safety and children's rights.
