5. CHILD LABOR:
Mill notes that it is right that….
Children should be protected … from being
overworked. Laboring for too many hours in the day,
or on work beyond their strength, should not be
permitted to them, for if permitted it may always be
compelled. Freedom of contract, in the case of
children, is but another word for freedom of coercion.
Education also, the best which circumstances admit of
their receiving, is not a thing which parents or relatives
… should have it in their power to withhold. [1965, p.
95]
