Child labour in Europe have been growing in the wake of the economic crisis. While unemployment rise, many families have not found other solution than sending their children to work. The real problem is that many of the children have extremely dangerous occupations in agriculture, construction, small factories or on the street. For instance, in Bulgaria is common that children working up to ten hours a day in the tobacco industry. Therefore, child labor interferes with children's schooling and allow the cycle of poverty.

Actually, 250 million children workk around the worl, and although exists legal conditions to work, many industries don't comply. For example, in Africa, parents sell their children in exchange of a cow.

Despite the laws that protect children they continue working, many of they work in activities, such as domestic service, bus conducting, industrial work, street hawking, and child trafficking, with enormous adverse consequences both for the children and the nation, at large. The problem is that if a child works, he has no right to medical care and service provision. Child abuse is a massive problem in all world, specially in Africa when almost of children work. Child abuse manifests in several forms, including child labour, sex trade, early and forced marriages. It is important to protect children and not allow them to be victims of adults.
