Is it just me or all you people in Hyderabad are also seeing an increasing number of under-aged girls hired as house help. I just see them everywhere in malls, hotels and even cinema halls.
One of my worse experiences so far was at a hotel where a family came with a young girl (definitely below 14) who was taking care of an infant. It was clearly visible that she was hired as a help. The family was happily clearly enjoying their dinner when the girl was made to stand near the door carrying the infant. She was strictly facing the doors and not the tables. I could not believe that the employers did not offer her food or even a seat. Sick minded fair skinned morons. (Well they looked like one) We had to request the hostess at the reception to give her a chair which she did with a smile.
Then at the movie theater yesterday, I saw two girls again helping a family and clearly they also looked like hired help. Atleast they had took these kids to the movie. And I went to someone’s place who had their shop within the house. There also I saw a girl helping them out in getting the stock out and the owner would not even move to pick a pencil. I was so ashamed that I did not have the heart to buy anything.
I maybe wrong and these people may be sponsoring their education or sending them to school as well. All of them were fairly young like school going kids. But they should definitely learn how to treat them.
They are not your personal slaves and it really takes character to treat someone as equal. These people definitely seem to be lacking one.
Sick people. Usually I dont relate to many of your posts(painting-reading- et al) but this one struck a chord…let me tell you that it is just not in Hyderabad…
It is an Indian thingy….Kids are hired to work this way in Singapore, Dubai etc…we’re truly in the 21st century…
So sad… BTW I think I should also start making graphs so that you can relate to something on my posts
