"If it were not a good option for them, they wouldn't sign up for it, so it has more benefits than costs for them."

The same could be said for child labor though couldn't it?

And I'm sure there are children out there for whom closing of a local factory (because it breaks the child labor ban) would be a tragedy. IMO ban on child labor should be imposed only if the state is equipped to provide adequate material help to children who would lose jobs this way.
