“Angels without wings”
This is in reference to the above titled write-up published in TDS on October 7, 2015. The writer asked how these children end up in our homes. It is because we entice them with food and shelter.
The government should make the registration of children who work as domestic help compulsory. Employers should be required to register children who work in their homes. Monitoring of their health and education is also imperative. Those in charge of monitoring should regularly advise household adults and remind the latter about their responsibilities. In this regard, NGOs might be of great help.
