Children as young as 8 and 9 could work up for 12 or more hours a day because their was no age restriction or about how many hours they can work. So they would work 6 days a week and didn't have holidays off. Also women had it hard working in mills or mines. They had such high demand for children that having a child caused problems with their strength and ability work. Also they lost money for not working and having another mouth to feed.

When researching this I found that many men, women, and children were killed during this time period and that it wasn't shocking to live to the age of 22 and that you would want to start building a family at our ages. Thanks to labor unions this doesn't happen anymore in lots places that industrialized. And how hard they had to work for such little pay and to miss out on holidays and to work that long is just mind boggling to me.

After researching this subject more in depth I found it more and more scary. To think that kids were dying left and right is just hard to think about, let alone that the government and the companies did not care for a while.

Factory workers were only expected to live to around 22 years. Since death at 22 was such a short time many kids would marry very young and would support a family at very young age. But if you were older you would marry someone younger so your new wife can inherite your belongings.
