Child labor

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I had no idea what I which article I was going to evaluate, so I was skimming through a couple I thought were interesting, and this one caught my eye. Child labor is still a relevant topic all around the world. Even if it's illegal in the U.S. many companies find ways around our law to get cheap labor from other countries. I've always had a decent idea about child labor and what it entails (everything negative), but I was surprised to come across a "potential benefits" subheading while reading.

Evaluate the article
I feel like the topic was covered pretty thoroughly! I did notice there was a section stating the potential positives of child labor, but none truly explaining the negatives. Eliminating child labor was a big topic, but there was no specific section explaining the potential negatives of child labor. I believe if we are going to evaluate one side of the argument, we should include the other as well. I know that most people's impression of child labor is negative, and I think that side of the argument should be posed as well. Another sub-article talking about the negatives of child labor is an easy fix! Everything else about the article seemed pretty solid! There are tons of pictures with great captions that really show how heavy of a topic it is.
