What happened to dickens father when dickens was young?

Answer 1

He was sent to newgate prison

Answer 2

Charles's father, John, had overspent their income for so many years, that he finally saw nothing ahead of the family but ruin. When he was 12 (about 1824), Charles was sent to live in rooms near Warren's Blacking Company, where he worked for about eight months. Shortly after he did so, his father was jailed for debt. A few months later, a small inheritance allowed John and his family to move out of the debtors prison and Charles was allowed to leave Warren's and come home. His mother tried to insist that he continue working, but his father brought him home; as a result, Charles harbored a deep and implacable resentment toward his mother for the rest of his life.

His mother tried to insist that he continue working, but his father brought him home; as a result, Charles harbored a deep and implacable resentment toward his mother for the rest of his life. It's crucial to understanding Dickens to realize how deeply humiliated and disappointed he was by the episode. He was a promising and articulate scholar and he was taken from school, never to regain his previous momentum; he was set to become a gentleman and working at a factory was about the farthest from that he could imagine. He was incredibly ashamed of the whole period and confessed it to no one--even his wife-during his life. The affair appears in a partial autobiography, discovered after his death.
