Title: Obama Administration Pulls Rule On Child Farm Labor

(Reuters) - An Obama administration proposal to restrict child labor on farms has been withdrawn after criticism from agricultural groups.

The rules, which were supported by child labor advocates, would have banned children younger than 16 from using most power-driven farm equipment, including tractors, if they had not taken a training course.

The proposal also would have prevented those younger than 18 from working in feed lots, grain bins and stockyards.

The Labor Department said it had received thousands of comments about the rule and its effect on small family-owned farms.

"As a result, the Department of Labor is announcing today the withdrawal of the proposed rule dealing with children under the age of 16 who work in agricultural vocations," it said in a statement posted on its website on Thursday.

The departments of Labor and Agriculture will work with such organizations as the American Farm Bureau Federation and the 4-H farm youth group to develop programs to reduce accidents for young workers, it said.

Bob Stallman, president of the American Farm Bureau Federation, welcomed the move, calling it "the right decision for our nation's family-based agriculture system."

But Reid Maki, coordinator for the Child Labor Coalition, said the rules had been aimed at protecting children drawing wages and did not apply to children working on their parents' farms.

Farm work is the most dangerous sector for young workers and pulling the proposed rule could mean another 50 to 100 deaths over the next decade, he said.

"We think they (the rules) were really well designed and would have saved some lives," he said.

An injury could make a child dependent on government for the rest of his life.

LoonyMing: An injury could make a child dependent on government for the rest of his life.

CZ, it would appear that loonyming actually prefers people to not know how to work, so they can be dependant on the government for the rest of their lives....

In other words, the miniscule risk of injuries outweighs having a productive society.

Hmmm... by that logic, can we therefore conclude that nobody should eat, because people sometimes choke on food?

By that logic, can we conclude that we should outlaw all internal combustion engines, to make everyone walk wherever they go (after all, 50,000 people die in car accidents each year! Gasp!)

And so on...

That was my point but it went over her head so fast it sounded like a jet passing nearby......

That's how most of the current farmers in this country learned their trade, when they were young and from their parents/neighbors!!!!! You learn things better and faster when you're young, not when you're older and have had other influences in you're life..... Like stupid Leftards......

You know I've always wondered what those dumb bastards (Leftards) would do without people who actually know how to do things the correct way????

Soo the only way children can learn to work and be independent is to work on a farm? That's rather limiting, don't you think.

Where did anyone say that children can learn to work and be independent only on a farm? No where did anyone say that.

This is a trait that you and mininggold share, interestingly enough. You both ask asinine hypothetical questions when you have no other reasonable response. Asking asinine hypothetical questions is not an acceptable substitute for intelligent debate. It's one reason why so many believe you are both the same person as well as why so many believe you both are idiots.
