This isn't about a general ban of child labor but about removing one option for children to work. One could try to argue for a general ban, but that is a different issue.

What? Child labor is already generally banned in China. I just argued that giving money to a company that is secretly, illegally partaking in child labor is giving money (and therefore encouragement) to a company that is likely engaging in inhumane labor practices.
