Turns out, about 1 million children age 10 to 15 were working in America in 1920 (out of a total population of 12 million kids in that age range). About half worked on family farms. The rest did everything else, working in factories, trained as apprentices, and served as messengers.
Q. What types of jobs did kids have during child labor?
Young lads in urban areas often earned their living as newspaper carriers or as couriers. In many towns, mills and glass factories regularly employed girls and boys. Young children worked in the fields performing farm labor and on the coasts in the seafood industry.
Q. What were conditions like for child laborers in the early 20th century?
As industrial laborers, children received only money in exchange for their work-and very little money at that. Now they worked in crowded, noisy, impersonal, and often polluted surroundings, often subject to the authority of some- one who hardly knew them. Long hours kept them out of school.

Q. Which is better Nike or Adidas?
