[Two of Britain’s high street giants have found Syrian refugee children working
in their clothing factories in Turkey, leading to calls for other retailers
to investigate their own supply chains.
H&M and Next were the only retailers that admitted to identifying
child labour in supplier factories in Turkey, but there are fears that
the phenomenon could be far more widespread after several
other companies failed to answer questions on the use of Syrian workers in their factories.]

I don't think we should condemn these kids for lying to H&M and embarrassing this company... they were just trying to provide for their families.

I think it's kinda sweet. How many kids in the UK would go to such lengths to help their families?

yes, but i'm saying, their intention was good. i don't think it's fair to blame the kids for trying to help their parents.

What will happen to these families that were surviving on that money?
