The original unions were formed because of the extremely harsh work conditions in America at the time. These Unions stood for more worker rights, child labor laws, and minimum wage.
John L. Lewis improved the lives of coal miners by organizing them into unions. The unions forced the mine owners to make the mines safer and to stop the practice of child labor in the mines.
America never stopped child labor, it is still going on to this day.
Some of the things that companies did to stop labor unions was use scabs. Scabs were people that replaced the people in the labor unions on the job. The people in the labor unions would then be lose their job and have trouble feeding their families. Companies would also use black listing which was when companies would tell other companies of people who were involved in labor unions. Then the people who were black listed were not able to get jobs in the area, and would then be forced to move. They also hired private security companies to harass union members. Some used their connections with the government to have troops come in and use superior force to breakup strikes.
They did because they were trying to stop child labor

The labor movement in the United States grew out of the need to protect the common interest of workers. For those in the industrial sector, organized labor unions fought for better wages, reasonable hours and safer working conditions. The labor movement led efforts to stop child labor, give healthbenefits and provide aid to workers who were injured or retired
No, child labor actually decreased due to the public`s discontent with young children spending their days working. There were unions that pushed for child labor laws, which were passed.
