Poverty: So many families in our society rely more on those who are wealthy to earn a living and sending a child to such home can trigger child labour.
Lack of Education: Most people cannot afford to send their children to school because of high school fees and how expensive education is, they prefer to send their children to learn handwork than sending them to school.
Weak laws and enforcement: Most employers of labor take advantage of this to exploit cheap children.
