In the 1960s, child labor in the United States was significantly reduced compared to earlier decades, largely due to the implementation of stricter labor laws and compulsory education requirements. However, estimates suggest that around 1.6 million children, aged 14 to 17, were still working in various sectors, often in low-wage jobs. The focus during this time shifted towards education and safeguarding children's rights, leading to a gradual decline in child labor practices.
