Yeah, at first I thought this would be a case of !orphancrushing@lemmy.world. Like, good news everyone, this kid actually enjoys his child labor.
But I guess, at just 15 hours per semester and if it is relatively fun activities like this, then I can see that it’s actually educational and might prevent the dissociation that students often experience.
Need to look up the word “volunteer”. nothing you described meets that definition.
I’m shocked by the illiteracy of people in this thread. Words have specific meanings, and those meanings don’t just change when you realize that you’ve been advocating for child slavery. Child slavery doesn’t magically become OK just because admitting you’re wrong makes you feel bad.
You know, 150 years ago, politicians argued that slavery was good for Black people. That caught them the meaning of work, of service. The entire concept is repulsive.
You’re advocating for child slavery. And it’s disgusting. Shame on you.
I’m not. I really don’t know how you’re reading that into my comment, where the first half literally expresses my worry about this being child labor. I’m not going to argue for a position I don’t hold.

Then it should be called community service or something.

I didn’t say that it meets the definition of “volunteer”.
No, you’re arguing in favor of child slavery.

Yet, you are here arguing to defend child’s slavery.
