The Child Rights Movement started as early as the Industrial Revolution when small children began to work in sweat shops and coal mines. The rights of children have been fought for and rallied around by judges, lawyers and lawmakers alike.

The Children's' Rights movement began in earnest during the Industrial Revolution. Children were hired in factories and performed grueling tasks for long hours and low pay. Social reformers like Charles Dickens, himself a former child worker, wrote about these conditions in books like "Oliver Twist". Other social reformers like Lord Shaftesbury and Charles Brace, founder of Aid Society were pioneers in reforming the way children were treated.
