I don't for a minute think that my photo, ‘Mummy's Little Helper' shows child labor in a pottery factory. I think it just shows a work environment where a mother was allowed to bring her child to work in order the keep an eye on her.
When I took this photo, at a pottery factory in Xian, in 1991, there was nothing I saw that showed the little girl had specific tasks of her own to do.
The mother is preparing handles to stick onto the clay jars on the table in front of her. The little girl is using a pair of scissors to cut strips of clay.
I posted them all because I like all of them.
