HELLO WINTER

winter is the time of the year when we spend most of our time inside. it's time to allow you’re yourself to engage in various activities like ice hockey, ice skating, snow fight and making snowmen. It’s the season where we enjoy the snowfall and wrap ourselves in the blanket as well as taking hot coffee with your love once.in the winter season usually, the day becomes shorter and the night becomes longer. The sunrise is late or sometimes it doesn’t.

The people who live in mountainous areas experience the snowfall and they have to shovel it out to make a way for walking. Those people who love the sight of snowfall move to those areas to enjoy the snowfall with their family and friends.

Winter isn't always a pleasant season for everyone. People who engaged in seasonal jobs become jobless. The homeless and stray animals are also affected by it more than others because they don't have proper shelter. In addition to shelter, they don't have warm clothing and enough food to keep warm. Due to harsh weather, people migrate to areas where the weather is pleasant.

Additionally, it's the coldest season of the year, and the whole country is experiencing extreme climate change. Roads got blocked due to heavy snowfall. Flights get canceled. In addition to smog, snowfall also caused flights to get canceled. 

The whole transportation system becomes disturbed and accidents also occur. Apart from this, people stuck in their vehicles get frozen and die too. While snow is picturesque when it is falling, it isn't beautiful. Modern vehicles are designed to keep drivers and vehicles on the road. However, icy roads can cause accidents. Many people die as a result.

To sum up, winter is a beautiful season but avoid traveling in heavy snowfall to avoid getting into any accidents.

"save the children, save the nation"

"child's hands are too small to work"

Child labor is the working of children in any office, industry, or factory below the working age assigned by the government. Child labor exists for the last many decades where they exploit children mentally, physically, and socially. Instead of getting an education and enjoying their childhood, they are forced to participate in the labor force to earn money. Many children between the ages 5 -15 worked for 10-12 hours to earn little amount of money. These children mainly worked in agriculture, factories, mining, brick factories shoes repair, car cleaning, carpet weaving, etc.

Millions of Pakistani children are forced into child labor due to different circumstances. Such as poverty, unemployment, lack of parents' education, lack of access to education, and overpopulation. A rise in the number of children aged between 5 to 11 years in child labor is in an alarming position, which needs to address. About 11 million children in Pakistan perform domestic tasks, work in industry and work in the brick-making industry. Pakistan has the world's second-highest number of children who do not attend school.

Most of the poor families force their children to work in hazardous conditions despite facing physical, emotional, mental, and social exploitation. Child labor is growing all over the world, especially in developing countries and Pakistan is also the victim of this growing phenomenon.

Millions of children in Pakistan are pushed to child labor as a result of COVID -19. As a pandemic wreak havoc on family income due to this children are forced to participate in child labor. COVID -19 raises poverty, due to this increase in child labor is the only hope for survival.

One study suggests that a 1% increase in poverty leads to a 0.7% increase in child labor. Children from poorer households are more likely to be in child labor compare to children from richer families. Another reason for child labor is gender disparity. Children in child labor are less likely to live with both parents. child labor is higher in rural areas than in urban areas. This is because in the rural areas people are mostly engaged in agriculture and have no more employment opportunities that's why they force their children to work with them. Child labor is more venerable to health hazards especially to physical hazards like pain and injury.

To reduce the child labor rate government has to reduce the poverty rate. Because child labor is directly related to poverty, once poverty will be in control then child labor will be reduced. secondly, the government should provide employment opportunities to the citizens so they will not force their children to work.  In addition, the government should control the population because due to overpopulation poverty and unemployment increase.
