Why boycott items made in China?

China free presents

Chinese Child Laborers

Child Labor information






I have heard people talk about boycotting products made in China. And I have heard Hanna ask, "Why does everything say 'Made in China'?". Then I was listenting to 107.9 the Link this morning. They were talking about sites that had China free presents. And for some reason I was moved. I began to think about the poor children at my school. And I began to think about how their lives do not even compare to some of the lives of those children that were "lucky" even to be born in China. I already bought Hanna's Christmas presents this year, but I want to make buying China free items a part of my life. Yes, I am only one person, but it feels good to know that it might make a difference. We are also doing a present free Christmas this year with my family. However, Hanna and I have been working on the project Christmas Child through her school, giving to our Compassion child and finding little things to give some children that we know will not have much this christmas.
Hope you all are having a wonderful Christmas Season!
