things sometimes it is a tragic event and sometimes it is in
the paper and sometimes they talk about it on the news.

Tragic Events
Some teens get the word out differently
sometimes they have a tragic event like in the
case of Malala she was 12 years old when it
happened, she was trying to have every kid
be in school espsacaily all the girls in her
country. While she was speaking out she got
attacked by people who did not like what she
was doing and they shot her but somehow she lived and
she was growing in people following her and believing in
what she was doing.
Talking and the Internet

ways to get there word out

the internet and know
everyone knows about it in his town and people started
donating their old electronics and his business grew and

young people. old electronics and his business grew and
he got to go on the news and talking about what he was
doing. And how it was helping the planet and educating
young people.
This chapter is about child labor
Big Problems
Teen Activist finds different was to tell
people about what
they are doing in this example a by
named Iqbal who is 12 years old was
fighting
for
child
slavery so in the U.S he was
on tv telling about how he
was sold at 4 years old and
he escaped when he was
ten years old. And he told
about how there are 218
million child slaves but when he got to his home country
he got killed because he was speaking out about child
slavery.

Child Labor
Child labor is a big thing around the world and I wanted to
bring up this topic to help the kids in child slavery. So
pretty big facts are there are 60,627,752,999 hours
worked by child slaves and the
number is still growing a rapid rate and It will not stop until
we put an end to child labor. You may ask how did this
number get so big well in 1900 the industrial revolution
happened and children were
cheap and worked hard. And
they are small so they can fit
in small places. So business
hired children to help them in
their company. The kids
worked well and were cheap
so businesses thrived at this time.
Problems with child slavery
Is that the kids in slavery they cant have the childhood
a kid should have. And also sometimes they can get the
illness from the dangerous jobs they do sometimes the
child is treated like a slave and sometimes they are
treated better. But most time they are not and are treated
worse than a dog they lived and had no sanitary areas and
on top, they have nowhere live and then sometimes they
even get beaten up by their slave owners.

People who have helped stop child labor


People who have helped are the kids
who have been in child slavery and most
times they come out to speak about child
slavery. And to try to help the children get
out of child slavery traders before they are traded. One big
person who has helped is Iqbal and he talked a lot about
child slavery than when he went back to his hometown but
when he arrived he was killed.

Conclusion
Think about what I just told you and about all the children
how cant have a good childhood/adulthood because they
are enslaved in labor. So if you want to help
you can look up child slavery and donate to
help child slaves have a great life and
childhood.
