"The New York Times spoke with more than 100 child roofers in nearly two dozen states, including some who began at elementary-school age."

 

"They wake before dawn to be driven to distant job sites, sometimes crossing state lines. They carry heavy bundles of shingles that leave their arms shaking. They work through heat waves on black-tar rooftops that scorch their hands. The rise of child roofers comes as young people are crossing the southern border alone in record numbers. Nearly 400,000 children have come to the United States since 2021 without their parents, and a majority have ended up working, The New York Times has reported in a series of articles this year. The most common job for these children is under-the-table work in roofing and construction, according to teachers, social workers, labor organizers and federal investigators. Roofing is plentiful and pays better than many of the other jobs these children can get."

 

From "Children Risk Their Lives Building America’s Roofs" (NYT).

 

"Children"... but not the NYT reader's children or grandchildren. The headline omits any reference to immigration.
