Child labour in Pakistan, Smoking in Nigeria and Insecurity in Mexico

Today we talked about some of the more global risks that young people face.  The three videos are below if you'd like to take another look.  I would love to hear what you think?  What kind of challenges did we see.  Do you see some solutions?  Just feel free to share your thoughts.  I'd also really like to see someone add a comment about someone else's comment.  Then it's a conversation!

  3. It's so horrible that people actually like to smoke, when it's so bad to body. I don't think it's fair that innocent people standing beside have to accidentally suck in the second-hand smoke, which is disgusting.
    I'm so glad that I'm not a child worker, the bad thing about it is like kids can't go to school and learn lot's of things and can only learn one thing. The good thing is that they get money to survive.
    Personally, I think if I lived in country that had war, I'd just leave and become a refugee.

  4. After watching the child labour video I learned that child labour is usually caused by large families or families who can't afford education. The interviews were very interesting and provided lots of information. Lots of organizations are working on stopping child labour. Child labour can be stopped, but the parents must have a good job and provided well until they can manage themselves. Asia is the biggest continent that has hazard child labour.I am very thankful that I am in a safe country, that does not have hazard child labour.

  5. I think they got child labour is bad because if they didn't get a good education they wont have any knowledge. And I think they smoke is really bad to our body, and when you smoke you will kill yourself and other people who smell it. So I think I am really lucky can get education!

  6. I think if those child keep smoke it really bad to their body, and if you smoke a lot it make back you die.And the other things that I don't like in this video is that they make children to do something,and sometime those adult will tell the children to do something bad too!If these children keep doing work, they won't have any knowledge.When these child grow up they will only know how to do the things that they are doing at the young, and then they can't do any other things.
