聯合國在世界無童工日(六月十二日)發表的一份報告中警告,全球金融危機將迫使更多的兒童成為童工。
專家分析,父母的貧窮和無知是導致兒童變成童工的主要原因。童工經常遭受身體、心理的創傷,甚至有時遭性虐待。社會中對童工現象存在的容忍,特別是印度的中產階級,也是造成童工持續存在的原因之一。
小女孩成為童工的風險特別高,他們最後往往成為女傭,月收入只有區區幾美元。許多孩子持續多年一天賺不到一美金。

I stayed with a family for several months in India last year. They had a ten-year-old girl servant working half of evrery day cleaning, cooking, and baby-sitting. Guess how much she earned per month. You won't believe it. It's hardly 3 us dollars. I heard that she had other six sisters. All of them worked to help support their family, since they father did nothing at all but have more kids to earn for him.
