Instead of thoughts of shopping and BBQ this  Labor Day,  I choose to think about these children working today in Incredible India. I know that things are improving there but we must do what we can until there is not a single child,  laboring. They need to run, play, smile, learn and prepare in their joyful childhood  to work for India when they are grown.

    This makes me so sad to see these children working in all that filth. My heard goes out to them. But the culture may be so entrenched, it may never change.

      I know that there are people working specifically to end child labor, but you are right, it is entrenched. I am going to be positive that it will end. Mr. Modi the new PM has vowed so . That is a good sign.
      Thanks for the visit!
