It had a very big impact. they had to do all the work and take of the children. It was very emotional because the women who sent their husbands out to go to war and if they died then they would have tho live with it.
Thousands of children were evacuated from Europe to England and America by ships. Many thousands were sent from England to Canada and America by ships, but this stopped when many children died on a ship that was torpedoed. Some of the children could not be reunited with their families after the war because parents had died or had been forced to move away by bombings. Many small children did not even remember their parents after the war.

In Britain in World War 2 children (and in the case of babies, also the mothers) were sent from large cities to rural areas to get them away from bombing. This process was called evacuation.
The children were sent to the country to live with people there. Some were sent to Ireland and the United States. These were children of the more wealthier families. The children who were evacuated from London and other towns were called evacuees.
Homeless children were sent to live in a harsh place called a workhouse.
Italy was being invaded by Austria-Hungary. Children in the north were sent to Britain for safety's sake.
Both, depending on if the parent sent them on time or not
they got sent to the countryside or even other countries!
Unfortunately some of the children who were evacuated were sent to homes where they were abused.
