It is a serious criminal offense to pay or force a child into labor or work. For a parent or an adult to receive money as an exchange for a child working as a domestic staff member is slavery and war crime.
There is no excuse for employing a child to work as a maid. You will not only subject the child to prolong trauma, you will inadvertently expose such child to the risk of sexual, physically and mental abuse.
Stand up for these innocent children, CALL OUT, report any found indulging into such to the authority. The consequences of these menace are too enormous.
START DRAGGING THEM OUT PEACEFULLY AND NEVER COVER YOUR FRIEND, FAMILY, CELEBRITY, PUBLIC OFFICER etc. Fight for this online and offline. Nothing abuses the RIGHTS of a child more than child slavery in the form of domestic staff.
