If it means cheap clothing for us, and money for their families whats the problem ?

Thinking that *every* child has some right to schooling is socialist right-speak.

Are your serious? Did you read the article? These kids are apparently entrapped in slave labor, or something close to it. Free-market dogmatists don't seem to realize that there are stories like this behind a lot of 3rd-world companies we buy from.

The Observer newspaper quoted the children as saying they had been sold to the sweatshop by their families... Some...were not being paid.
