There were many effects of the industrial revolution in America and around the world. One of those was the distinct change in the family unit. Before the industrial revolution, families worked together on their farms. The rise of factories took men out of the home and left women to tend to the children and the domestic tasks. Another effect was the rise of the middle class, caused in part by the rising need for "white collar" workers. A third effect is the rise of cities, or "urbanization". People needed to be closer to their factory jobs and so needed to live closer to the industries.
