Children are sill sold as slaves in China. There aere up to 1000 in factories such as primitive brick kilns. The ownrs who run these kilns, keep the children as in a prision & have viscious dogs 7 beat the childen."One accidentally killed a child with a shovel and buried the body at night". This is occring in Shanxi & Henan provinces. See the attached photo & read this terrible report: http://www.news.com.au/adelaidenow/story/0,22606,21910640-5012775,00.html

The first blame goes to the Chinese government for allowing this to continue. Next, I would have to ask: where is the UN during all of this? If the cable news networks can uncover the stories, then I would think that the Government of China could figure it out and do something to protect its children-they are, after all, the future of the country. We have to appreciate our life in the U.S. when reading stories like this.

This is why we should refuse to buy anything that is made in China. Who cares if its cheaper,it was made by slave labor and is helping to keep that trade prosperous. If everyone would boycott their products then they would be forced to change their ways.

It is really matter of concern for all of us that even today when we are claiming that we are living in modern society but making the children slave. After making slave we are killing them in brutal way. This is really objectionable. China Government must take action against child labour. This is because of dense population in china. State Governments are not governing in proper way. Laws are not being implemented. We all must protest this type heinious crime otherwise children will be used in this brutal manner. Let us send e-mail at least as a protest and spread this message to as much as people.
