Yeah, so make it illegal for them to work and let them starve OR... Let them build my son's transformer and we both win!

@Amazed: It probably already has, due to your ass-tarnishing intelligence. Try proposing a solution. Whatever we buy, somewhere someone is going to enslave kids to make it.
@Everyone: Birth Control is the only "foreign aid" I would ever give. Those child slaves are offspring of people who can't afford offspring.

We can't change anything. It's too uncomfortable to change things. Let it as it is. As long as it's comfortable for me the world is ok.

@responsibility idiot - Germany, Italy, UK, Belgium, Netherlands.. all countries that have higher population densities than China. I think birth control is needed as much here in Europe as elsewhere. And as for Americans, everyone knows the world would be better off with much fewer of them.

just do not buy these good. that way they will starve and you will probably feel better... we do no have child labor because we are rich enough. We produce enough to: feed the kids, and school them. The Chinese are not there yet. allowing these kids to work is probably the best you can do at the moment.

@@EUro - Exactly. Only two (or maybe three) generations ago Europe was where China is now. Children labour was something completely normal (and I'm, speaking about coal mining, not toy assembling). Then countries grew and there was no need to employ kids anymore. It's social evolution. Contrary to what some may believe, the 'society' wasn't created by God's touch in six days. It had to evolve. In some places evolution takes more time or looks different, thats all.

@EUro - The slave trade to the New World started hundreds of years before the United States became a sovereign nation. They were brought here by the Portugese. They were brought by the British, the French, the Spanish, the Dutch. Americans didn't bring slaves to the New World, the Europeans did.

It's not funny. It's not good. Still, there's nothing we can do about it here, in the West. Children's labour will go on either for export or for domestic market until Asian governments do something about it.
Note: Applying "American 100000 tons of diplomacy" is not a good solution either.

You're absolutely correct! It is tragic that the toy originated from China; that means that the so-called shiny new toy is used, since other kids already played with it. Nothing worse than a used transformer.

No child labor laws at the North Pole. All those claims that bad kids get lumps of coal for Christmas, elves working for Santa, flying reindeers...all lies. Finally we managed to leak a photo of to Santa's Sweatshop to the public.

We'll be waiting anxiously for the news of your successful invasions of China and all the whatevernesias where these things happen, in order to abolish child slavery. Oh, wait... you were just planning to show up at some embassy, with a sign, dressed up as a transformer? Ahh right, yeah, because that's always worked so well for Greenpeace and PETA and all of those useless, pathetic attempts at founding new religions. So now, please help the World by leaving the cybercafe and trying to find a job, thank you!.
