Summary Southern Exposure investigates child labor in the United States. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates there are 5 million youth in the work force, but the agency does not collect data on those under 15. Farm work is notably unregulated when it comes to young workers, leaving many children working in situations detrimental to their social and educational development, health, and their lives.(Fall/ Winter 1995)
