I have a contractor friend who employs several people. One of his workers brought his eight year old to the job site in an office building on a Saturday. He told the kid that he would give him a few bucks to pick up some trash. Another office in the building happens to be the local state labor bureau office. One of the labor bearau employees stopped in after hours and saw the kid taking out trash and went crazy on them about working someone under age. It was nuts. My buddy was being nice to the kid and boom winds up breaking a law he was unaware of. It is likely we have all run afoul of the law in ignorance and sometimes we wind up facing the consequences.

We don't know all the ins and outs and a rush to judgement from those of us on the outside is simply unwise.
Gee...I wonder if the same applies at home for doing chores
