In a similar vein, the effort to legally regulate domestic works by children must go hand in hand with concerted awareness building efforts of the Government and NGOs to underline the evil effects of engaging children under 12 years of age in domestic work, maltreating child domestic workers, and denying child domestic workers the opportunity to grow as a responsible citizen. Such concerted actions would be even more imperative for a country like Bangladesh where public bodies may in many cases suffer from lack of institutional capacity. The concerted actions must ensure that the efforts to regulate child domestic works are meaningful, realistic, and do not inflict any unintended harm on those for whose benefits of whom they are undertaken. 31
