Aim: So you think you have it BAD?

You are a 15-year-old living in England where the Industrial Revolution has
spurred the growth of thousands of factories. Cheap labor is in great demand.
Like millions of other teenagers, you do not go to school. Instead, you work in
a factory 6 days a week, 14 hours a day. The small pay you receive is needed to
help support your family. You trudge to work before dawn every day and work
until after sundown. Inside the workplace the air is hot and foul, and after
sunset it is so dark it is hard to see. Minding the machines is exhausting, dirty,
and dangerous.

DO NOW: 1. Would you attempt to change your working
conditions in the factory?
2. Would you join a union, go to school, or run away?

Notes:
1. Long hours: The sun may be shining through the windows as this child’s day begins, but it will have disappeared by the time his day ends.
2. Dangerous machines: Children usually worked in bare feet with no safety equipment among machines with many moving parts.
3. Hot temperatures and dust-filled air: Dust particles from thousands of bobbins cling to the clothing and hang in air heated by the machinery.
