Child labor

Main article: Child labour
Child labor refers to the employment of children in any work that deprives children of their childhood, interferes with their ability to attend regular school, or is mentally, physically, socially or morally dangerous and harmful.[83] This practice is considered a form of exploitation and abuse of children by many international organizations.[84][85] Child labor refers to those occupations which infringe the development of children (due to the nature of the job and/or the lack of appropriate regulation) and does not include age appropriate and properly supervised jobs in which minors may participate. According to ILO, globally, around 215 million children work, many full-time. Many of these children do not go to school, do not receive proper nutrition or care, and have little or no time to play. More than half of them are exposed to the worst forms of child labor, such as child prostitution, drug trafficking, armed conflicts and other hazardous environments.
                               What's Is The Difference Between A Blog And A Website
                           
What is a Website?

A website in return can be anything. Anything on the internet presented in HTML/CSS or Java/JavaScript/Python/Php, etc. comprises of a website. A website may be complimented with a blog, but the home page would be more for browsing other pages and not just posts. Fully functional and eye-catchy websites are usually cost consuming tasks as you would have to build from the base up. However with platforms and services like Adobe Dreamweaver, you could build your own website.

A blog can be a part of a website, in the form of  a separate page and linked to the homepage. A website is a bigger aspect and its limitations are little to none. A website could be anything from a single page to a 1 Billion-users social network (Say, Facebook).

Basic identification of a website:
•A homepage that displays content from several sections of internal website pages.
•A design portfolio of work.
•A blog might be a part of a website, but not the only thing.
•A Frequently asked questions page that readers can browse to get more information.
•A page of client testimonials and feedback.
•Company’s terms and privacy statements pages.
•A Contact form that allows visitors to get in touch.
•A services/products page that displays what they have to offer for the visitors.


Examples

Box, Evernote, Wikipedia, Facebook, desk etc. and the list goes on.




A blog is basically a web log that a blogger makes use for chronological listing of blog posts. A blog has the most recent content shown first followed by the previously updated content.
