Not so strict child labor laws

We had bought materials and paid a guy to build a house on my in-laws' property in Paraguay in 2008. The guy had an assistant but they were both busy working on the house so they contracted out the digging of the septic tank:

Actually my brother-in-law and his son did most of the work on the septic tank but a couple other youngsters chipped in.

I say there's nothing more heartwarming than seeing a child with a shovel in his/her hands. You're lucky. I've tried to get Allie and Julia to sew soccer balls but they won't have anything to do with it.

Greg, your kids are almost too big now to do that close-in, detail work. Are there coal mines in your area?
