My day is torture. I have to make food, rugs, and clothing. Everyday I have to pick up seeds one at a time. IT hurts my back alot. When im working outside im exposed to heat and cold. It makes me feel like im dying because im working for nearly 14 hours or more. I do very poorly in school because I dont even go to school. I would love to go to school so I can have a good education and so I can get a real job. I worry about getting sick from the chemicals they spray to kill bugs and bacteria. My parents make me work so that I can help them earn money. Which is quite a little bit of money. I work to give my parents a better life. This is just like being a slave.
To help others I would refuse foods to buy foods that were picked by exploited workers. Everyone should refuse food that were picked by exploited workers because they work their butts off for people not to appericate what they did.

Great job! You really captured how much these workers can suffer - and for so little. For someone who listed eating as her talent (!), definitely paying attention to where our food comes from and how it is harvested is a good way to start helping child farm workers. We can also write to our government to urge them to make it illegal for children to work on farms, just like it's illegal for them to work in factories in the US
