Child labour refers to the employment of children in any work that deprives children of their childhood, interferes with their ability to attend regular school, and that is mentally, physically, socially or morally dangerous and harmful. This practice is considered exploitative by many international organisations. Legislation across the world prohibit child labour. These laws do not consider all work by children as child labour; exceptions include work by child artists, family duties, supervised training, certain categories of work such as those by Amish children, some forms of child work common among indigenous American children, and others.
What does child labour deprive children of? Are child artists an exception to the laws with regards to child labour? Is work done by Amish children an exception? Where is there legislation that prohibits child labour? Is all work done by children considered to be child labour?
