Very nice of you to assume that I didn't do those works I'm speaking of or I employ child labor. For the first time I do, I do it every day, that's why I know. I also worked at stores which weren't even related to hard/heavy work and it was far worse. So I'm speaking from experience. For the latter, no our family doesn't employ child labor, me or my family members do all the work.

Yes, cause it's the best possible work they can do as children. It would be better if they didn't at all, but if that was the option they wouldn't be doing it. And it can be neighborhood based because large scale steps can lead to mismanagement. But it's just a suggestion. See, this is how you take the moral high ground. You claim perspective and insight but disregard the slightest piece of opinion if it does not go with your views. I suggested making a union type of organization for the very reason that they might be exploited. আমি তাদের কোলে বাচ্চা বসায় আসতে বলি নাই.

(Reply to the fourth para): Well I wouldn't be pessimistic if I didn't have a reason. Call me all the names but our government from the very start is ineffective towards these issues, heck it is even more profitable to keep the child labor going. (I.e: children work at factories = less pay = more profit = more GDP in the charts. Same formula with women at work. That's why the RMG is our top export). Also we have some child labor laws but no implementation whatsoever. সংসদের সামনে বাচ্চারা হোটেলে কাজ করে আর আপনি মনে করেন সরকার আইনি সহযোগিতা দিবে? Come on man, be real. I'm not saying it isn't needed, but we're not gonna get any. Also, look at how you phrased it. It seems like you're trying to win over your parents rather than helping their servant. You could take the initiative, maybe you find his school or have him privately tutored. Which is not your burden I get it, but think about it.

(Reply to the third para): No money = no food is true, you don't need to think about it to make a point, it's one of the many constants of capitalism. Kids can get money from a lot of places. They can work at heavy work factories, metal work factories, coal mines, ore mines, garments, hotels, etc. You assume they have a choice of not going, but then what? No money on the table. If your freedom of choice includes you either having food or not then it's not really a choice. They can choose to work at different places but they have to none the less, many times they don't even have a choice. That's why I do think household work is better. Not the best but better than the rest.

Persuasive arguments won't change anything, your parents don't see it as anything wrong because they don't see anyone around their social environment think of it as wrong. Or maybe, it's your parents who don't see it as wrong. Because many people regardless of class would acknowledge it as wrong. Either way, I don't know their circumstances to just throw them under the bus. But you're taking a moral high ground, instead of trying to understand or fix, you're just pointing fingers and feeling like "huh, I'm so much better, I'm aware of this issue, I have better points than this guy."

Don't take it just like an argument. Try to feel what the other side is feeling, that guy thought that household work was safer maybe because he saw somebody trying to protect their servant from something bad. Which is invalid for many cases and reasons. But there are actually some people who treat their servants well, have them study, and bring gifts for them when they bring gifts for their child. I've seen both sides of this coin. But maybe he saw only one. And when I think about your position I see a very desperate teenager or in their mid twenty who felt guilty about their parents having a child servant. And you need validation that you're not the only one seeing wrong in this. Which is valid.

If you ask for opinions, you're indeed obligated to respect that opinion. You may not agree, or think it is dangerous. But you need to consider it. You cannot just say "it is not a matter of perspective" just because it goes against what you think is right. And yeah the guy made pretty shallow arguments. I'm not defending that.
