F
to show that children made good factory workers
G
to draw attention to the dangers of child labor

Explanation

Lewis Hine used photographs to make the realities of child labor visible and encourage reform. Showing how young factory workers were helped viewers recognize that children, not adults, were doing the work; drawing attention to the dangers supported efforts to persuade Congress to ban child labor. The other choices focus on promoting or rewarding child labor, not ending it.
