  ....one issue that is going to take a herculean effort to put it right because it's not as easy as it seems.
  
  Most of these children are actually helping to put food on the family table because their parents don't have jobs because of the economic hardships that had ravaged the country for the past 8 years.
  
  So while I am all for children being able to attend school, more jobs will have to be created for some of these parents to have the rights to be parents and take load off these kids so that they can also be kids.... which means not having to care about how the family is fed because the parents have that covered like they should.
  
  So the solution this issue is more of economics than just 'forcing' the kids to school.
  
  Kids are the future of the country so the government should be heavily involved in helping to curb this trend of 'child labour'.
