I recently stumbled across a disturbing sight on Facebook - a grown man, Andre Jonathan Kilgore, age 29 of Kingsport Tennessee, surrounded by underage children. When confronted, Kilgore revealed these children, all orphans, were also his employees at his auto-wash business, Ideal Auto Detail in Kingsport, Tennessee. He reasoned they were his employees, and he was assisting them, meanwhile exploiting them for unethical labor practices. Some people would do anything to make a profit.

Despite labor laws prohibiting the employment of minors in such hard labor and potentially dangerous environments, this man continues unabated. According to Child Labor Public Education Project, children should not be exposed to these conditions, and this situation clearly constitutes child exploitation.

By signing this petition, we demand a stop to this disturbing exploitation of orphans. Let us lobby for local authorities and child welfare services to ensure these vulnerable children are protected and not subjected to any form of exploitation. It's time we put a stop to Andre Jonathan Kilgore’s unethical business practices.

Please, sign this petition and help keep these orphans from being used as free labour at Kilgore's car wash business.
