    “It didn’t do me any harm” is not a reason to do something. And I would say that you have no idea how it harmed your development. People make that claim about getting beaten as kids too.

        So working at 13 years old guarantees you will be good with your money? Or not working at 13 years old guarantees you won’t?

        Because it would seem to me that teaching children financial literacy would be a better plan than allowing corporations to benefit from child labor.
