Throughout the 18th century misconceptions about children increased child labour During the Victorian Era, increased in population in Great Britain worsen child labour.

Slide 9 - Current Influences
Slide 10 - Poverty The underlying factor Caused by economic, environmental, social, and physical factors Child labour becomes a coping strategy in that negative shift of the family’s well-being; families survive thanks to the financial contribution made by children’s work (Bhukuth, 2008) Understanding why a family sends a child into child labour
Slide 11 - Understanding cont’d Assumed that families are not in the business of exploiting children; and that the work is judged not be hazardous to their physical, mental, or moral health Important to note that exploitation cannot be ruled out (Bhukuth, 2008)
