//February 7, 2011//:
 * Discussions:**

//February 15, 2011//: We have to find a direct angle to enter our topic about. We can try and tie in our two points (business practices & poverty). For example, we liked the idea of Disney using child labor to attract our audience. If we must, we'll change our thesis question. (Start searching towards Child Labor & Toy Manufactoring) Here's a idea of what we can start searching, it's not an article therefore we can not use it for WPs, but it will help us get an idea of what we are searching and it provides us links at the bottom. //February 22, 2011//: We discussed a new research question and also new angles that we can approach for our paper. For our research question, we found affects on the children during child labor and how it affected society. For example, they believe that the reason why there are more educated males than females in China's society is because majority of child laborers are girls. Also, the products that these children make such as iPhones, laptops, radios, etc. You have to be really intelligent to accomplish such a thing and if they were channeled into eduaction, imagine all the potential they have to be successful, educated adults. We also want to find out how it effects on the family with less educated woman due to majority of child laborers are girls. For example, in Bangdalesh, the women are more responsible and they are given the daily donations of the family because they are trusted to use the money strictly for the family. For extra research, we have to look up China as a country in general. For example, it's economy, society, equal rights, human rights, law, etc. For background information, we answer these questions: Which product are produced by kids in child labor of China? Why are certain products produced by children? How does it relate to human rights?
