Which example is child exploitation?

Correct answer: Making a child do hazardous work

The direct answer is C: making a child do hazardous work. Child exploitation occurs when a child’s safety, health, education, or freedom is harmed for another person’s benefit. Dangerous work is especially serious because mines, factories, or similar places may cause injury and can remove children from school. Option C gives exactly this harmful situation, so it is correct. Option A, studying in school, normally supports the child’s education and development and is not exploitation. Option B, playing, is a normal part of childhood, health, and growth, so it is not exploitation. Option D, drawing a picture, is also a harmless educational or creative activity and does not show coercion or harmful labour. The key reasoning is: child plus dangerous work equals a strong sign of child exploitation, especially when the work replaces schooling or is forced. The constitutional protection is concerned with preventing exploitation, not with banning ordinary study, play, or creativity. Memory cue: whenever an option combines a child with hazardous labour, examine it first as the likely answer.
