Victorian children generally did not have pocket money in the way we understand it today. Most children from working-class families contributed to household income through work or chores, while those from wealthier families might receive small allowances for specific purposes. However, the concept of pocket money was not widespread, and spending money was often limited to special occasions or gifts. Overall, financial independence for children was minimal during the Victorian era.
Some children are rich by inheritance, or by specialized work. Most children have no money of their own until they reach an age when they can earn money.
Children were miserable and did not have a life. They swept chimneys and worked in factories. They didn't get paid and even if they did, children did not get paid very much. Children worked as hard as adults (at least they tried to) and they got nothing!!! The Victorian era was hard for children.Children were miserable and did not have a life.

Because children are not able to earn salaries they must be subsidised by the adults, who pay for the NHS through taxation from the money they earn.
Victorian children got paid so little because the government didn't have enough money to give to them, because they also had to give money to all the children in the country. They only paid them meat or bread, and usually only got 2 pounds a year!
