Child Labor During the Industrial Revolution With the rise of the Industrial Revolution during the Victorian era, people were often forced to work in unhygienic and dangerous places. Children were no exception to this. There were very few schools at the time. Most families were so poor that their children often had to go out and work. The children were pushed into difficult working environments, such as mines, where they worked from morning till evening. A few slices of bread with fat was all they could afford to eat. They were under the threat of being crushed by coal wagons and the stale air. The lack of sunlight within the mines would make them ill. Children stopped working in mines only after a law was passed against it in 1842. However, they continued to work in other dangerous places such as factories and mills. 6 Select the correct answer.
