Why don't they just allow children to work legitimately through the application, but add some safe-guarding controls and potentially notification to or authorisation by parents? This seems like a much better idea than to have a level of uncontrollable fraud that allows it through the backdoor and enriches rent-seekers.

An app that delivers children to your doorstep? Oh my
Children are more immature and prone to taking unnecessary risks.

I understand the theory but the reality would just be more children dying on the road.

Yes, that's why I believe all children should be banned from anywhere within 50 feet of roadways or swimming pools. It's simply too dangerous. Won't someone please think of the children!?
