The question of children labour has been widely discussed throughout the world in recent years.
Some people believe that children labour has negative aspects while others claim that early work experience has more benefits than disadvantages.
The first thing that should be noted is that work places are not equipped for children.
It can be illustrated by common office with high, uncomfortable tables, colorless wallpapers and no toys.
As a result, kids get bored and lose their productivity.
Additionally, children are force to put up with adult`s communication ways which could be rude and inappropriate for them.
It is a well known fact that the lack of socialization has an influence on mental development of children, hence when working children are deprived of communication with peer groups, it could be dangerous for their psychological growth.
Furthermore, even part-time job can affect study due to the physical fatigue.
On the other hand, working kids understand the value of money, that "money doesn`t grow on trees".
Moreover, children who work don`t spend all of their time in front of TV sets or computers, conversely, they gain a priceless experience important for future career.
In addition, working children study taking responsibility for their actions in both work and common life.
Taking all these points into consideration, I would say that I stick with the first opinion.
Despite of all these benefits, I believe that children should be children.
They should play games, make friendship, fight with enemies and enjoy their childhood that must be provided by parents.
