1. Child Soldier pros and cons: where the hell can I find a psa (public show announcement) that have pro-child soldier for my opposite augment against child soldier?

2. Child soldier vs child labor: the different?!?!?!

3. Bonus question: The school teach Yuki how to craft Ak-47 when Yuki was 16, does that make Yuki a child soldier v)x.o)v <(O.o(v?!?!?!? (Child Soldier is consider under 18)

In a world with proper morality, there is no pros to having child soldiers. Child are often taken as soldiers because of course they are the most vulnerable, easy to manipulate and of course because they're young they have a longer life span.
However those exact reasons can be viewed as pros to sinister people or people with a different agenda.

Personally the difference between child soldier and child labor comes mainly with the circumstances. When I think of child soldier I am given the idea that kids are made into numb fighting weapons. Child labourers come with the idea that the children are being paid. Although probably not much.

But back in the day we were actually incentivized to have more children pretty much for the purpose to work... the faster you have more children the more people that can get out into the work force. But this not 1950 and most of these situation dont apply to north america really anymore. But to most other countries they view child labor as a pro as they're able to make more profit.

it honestly really depends on how you look at it. I really don't think you'll find a PSA that promotes child labor // child soldiers, but there are definitely people that do believe that this is okay.

1950s?

Child labor was a major issue here in the late 19th Century, actually.

Anyway, at present in the US both children in the military and child labor are only possible with parental permission and a doctor's permission and sometimes a court action. Even then participation is strictly limited, and children are paid on the same scale as adults.

Children's military membership is limited to military schools and to what used to be called ROTC in public schools. They wear uniforms and take classes on military stuff, how to use assorted weapons, military strategies, history and politics... when they graduate they are admitted into the military as officers instead of buck privates.

Child workers are limited to 20 hours/week, never after 10pm, they aren't allowed around dangerous machinery, they have to attend school and keep their grades up, and in some states the parents have to put a percentage of the child's earnings into a trust fund that the child can cash out when they turn 18 or 21. (These rules can be skated around if the kid's working at the parents' business. Except for going to school and keeping up the grades. They still have to do that.)

2. Child soldier vs child labor: the different?!?!?!


Can't tell if serious....
Cons are obvious and someone else can say those.

PROS:
1=
a)Basic military principle of cannon fodder .
Aka I have more stuff to send at you with. Even if they aren't effective, they act as human shields can be used for diversionary tactics in warfare(you have to deal with them if they are attacking you even if not good at it), makes enemies waste supplies on them. If I come at you with 10,000child soldiers against 1,000 trained adult soldiers, you will probably be overrun.
b) Also it demoralizes the enemy to shoot at children.
c)Children can also be used effectively in sabotage missions (with decent training) because soldiers are usually not trained to expect children to commit sabotage actions.
d)If you were to train any sort of supersoldier or elite soldier, you would want to start from a young age, so they can gain as much experience as possible and keep them in top physical condition. Also conditions the subject to be mentally fit and gain commanding skills due to having to deal with so much trauma at a young age.
e)Make the younger generation have vengeful feelings towards an enemy. If someone shoots at you constantly as a kid, you are probably going to support actions against them when you get older either vocally and/or physically.

2)
Labor= not a soldier, not fighting in battles (End)
But seriously that pretty much sums it up
--Labor implies usually poor conditions(not necessarily) which can cause death.(someone isn't trying to kill you nor are you trying to kill them, typically)
--Soldier implies conditions in which death is fully expected as well as dealing at injuries, casualties to another. (children trying to kill each other)

The age that seperates child from adult also depends on differing countries laws and who you ask

3)Depends on who you ask and what definition. Personally, I'd say no since you never received proper physical nor mental training (nor did you go in the field without these trainings), knowing how a gun works or how to disassemble and reassemble it doesn't fall under definition.

1. Child Soldier pros and cons: where the hell can I find a psa (public show announcement) that have pro-child soldier for my opposite augment against child soldier?Pretty much all good things for someone using child soldiers who does not care about political reactions. Cons are all for those poor children or the repercussions of making it happen.

2. Child soldier vs child labor: the different?!?!?! Just gonna say its a thin line. Both draw back to conditioning. Teach someone to hate something without respecting their ability to make an informed decision and you remove ethical decision making process from them. Does not matter if they are making shoes or killing at that point- They did not have a choice.

3. Bonus question: The school teach Yuki how to craft Ak-47 when Yuki was 16, does that make Yuki a child soldier v)x.o)v <(O.o(v?!?!?!? (Child Soldier is consider under 18)[/QUOTE] Semantics. Not even worth talking about.
