June 12 marks the World Day Against Child Labor sponsored by the International Labor Organization.  The annual occasion is meant to draw policy attention to the more than 200 million children around the world who work full time, many in sweatshop conditions.   But not all child labor situations are black and white cases of exploitation.  VOA's Kurt Achin has a look at some underage textile workers in India, whose work often is crucial to their families' economic survival.
