Multiply that by five days and it's like giving your child a 50-hour work week, enough to make the union bosses to go up in arms unless there is overtime pay.
I know most of us wouldn't want to work a 50-hour week, but how come we're allowing this to happen to our kids? The schoolbags alone that they bring to class would qualify them as dockworkers, if not for the yayas who carry it for them.
