In Favor Of Child Labour

In favor of child labour.

The 1800s had no welfare. Injured workers have no disability. Women have no rights and other than prostitution, there aren't actually many jobs a woman can perform andmost do not pay enough to support one person, much less a family. Your father is permanently injured and your mom makes pittance doing laundry for others. You are a primary breadwinner.

How about anactual example in my family? My great-great-uncle was killed when he tried to stop a runaway stagecoach. He had 6 children. Three had to work in the mills and the other 3 did all the farmwork oncethey were about 3. My great-great-aunt, already having problems with depression and health after her 6th child did the cooking and caring for the infants. By the time she died, the oldest was old enoughto own the property; otherwise, the kids would have been shipped to orphanages, who in turn, would have farmed them out as workers. By allowing the children to work, they stayed together.

Congresspassing these laws DID protect some children, but it also destroyed a lot of families by eliminating a needed income stream in a time when there was no welfare.

There were severalfactors that led to support for child labor. The majority of the jobs were labor-oriented positions in agriculture and industry. The business people saw children as a solution to their labor problems...
