| Message | "The children must play and only go to school." The additional regulations in question limit the amount of hours children have and ensure they receive an education. "What about paper boys?" Or child actors? |

| Message | "OP, this is a gross violation of human rights!!!" Not being paid for work because some socialist party rocked up and said it had to stop is a gross violation of human rights. Children are no exception. If they have adequate regulation (which they do), what's wrong with children acting or, more mundanely, taking up a paper route? Get some perspective. |
