In the 1800s, children as young as five or six years old often started working, particularly in factories, mines, and as domestic servants. The Industrial Revolution increased the demand for cheap labor, leading many families to rely on their children's income. Working conditions were typically harsh, with long hours and little regard for safety or education. Child labor laws began to emerge later in the century, gradually changing these practices.
