In the book "Lyddie," the working conditions in the textile mills are depicted as harsh and unsafe. Workers, including children, were often overworked, underpaid, and subjected to long hours in noisy and dangerous environments. The mills were poorly ventilated, leading to health issues such as lung problems.
The working conditions of Lowell mills were very poor.

Children working in cotton mills often suffered from various deformities and health issues due to the harsh working conditions. Common problems included stunted growth, skeletal deformities, and respiratory issues from exposure to dust and hazardous materials. Additionally, repetitive motions and long hours in poor conditions could lead to musculoskeletal disorders and chronic fatigue. These health impacts were exacerbated by the lack of proper nutrition and medical care.
yes children did get punished in the mills if they did not work fast enough or if they even stopped working for a split second

I am Madeleine Mills' younger sister. I am very sad to say that Maddie died in August 2010 after a long battle with cancer. So, no, she is not working any more.
