'WellDel Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 17 minutes ago, Jives Miguel said: Any time I've gone into, or even walk past my local Chinese coming home from work, it's a wee boy who can't be any older than 12 or 13 working on the til taking orders. Sometimes a younger girl, his sister presumably, is with him. This is every single day I'm talking here. He is obviously the owner's son, but I really don't like the thought of a wee boy coming home from school then immediately having to go work in his da's shop for 5 or 6 hours everyday. Should I report this to some sort of child protection services, or am I being a Helen Lovejoy? I'd just have a quick word with the owner and be willing to accept the Set Meal for 4 every Saturday in order to buy my silence tbh. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
