And this regulation will be just a court action away from some turd making it illegal for kids to do any chores around a house...any house.
This is just Hillary Clinton pushing her UN children’s rights agenda which is no more and no less than the Soviet-style state claiming that children are the property of the state.
Spent the day calling anyone and everyone who would listen. Last I heard the proposal was being withdrawn......for now. Vigilance.
Open defiance, armed resistance. If they are not stopped here, then where will they be?
“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.”
-C. S. Lewis
This whole thing makes my head explode!
I was raised in a rural area and still live in one. There is NOTHING wrong with kids participating in a family farm.
Of course it would be far better that they play Farmville on the computer I guess.
Try this. I am computer illiterate but I’ll give it a shot

Fifteen years of my daughters helping me with chores developed a good head on their shoulders. One is in law school, and one is studying to be an architect. Both cried while putting up hay every summer, performed surgery on mamma livestock after pushing out their uterus and the baby (both stitched closed with a shoelace from their Converse sneakers), gave tens of thousands of immunization shots, laid fencing every year, fed bottle-babies at two hour intervals at 20 below zero, managed to train two herding dogs who were champions, run a backhoe and skidsteer, and made me proud. They did all this thru the ages of 8 to 22. Drove trucks, tractors, haybines, brush hogs, balers, and oh yeah........the farm airplane.
I pitty what's left of our next generation by the time government programming is thru.
Stalin?
Well, well, well. It seems the Regime has backed off on banning children from working on family farms.
Govt backs off new limits on child labor on farms

Except they have not backed off, they have just postponed their edicts until after the election so it’s important to get your butt to the polls on Nov. 6 and vote BO out!

How dare the children of farmers take jobs away from illegal immigrants.
What do they know? Delenda Carthago, that's what.
Who are they to interfere with a way of life that has been the backbone of America?
Communists. Hilda Solis is redder than a rhesus monkey's ass.
Will Johnny Cougar write a song about this? Or not, because HIS people are in the White House?
