New Child Labor Regulations For Farmers Under Debate

Have you heard about the new child labor regulations that are being proposed?  If not, and you live on a farm, you might want to check into this.  Read this article and get informed.  The gist of the proposals is that anyone under the age of 18 would not be allowed to do most of the traditional farm chores they have always done-throughout time.  Here is my question, well not really a question, more of a statement, but this seems very hypocritical of a government that supports and promotes abortion.  We continually allow the government to dictate how we raise, train, teach, lead, work with, admonish, discipline, feed and care for our children-all for the sake of their "safety".  You know, to keep them alive and well.  Yet, it is this same government that allows people, legally, to kill an unborn child.  Hypocritical, yes, but should I really expect anything less from a corrupt system?
