The biggest thing that people today do not grasp about children up through the early 1900s is that almost all children worked at young ages, 7, 8, 9 years old. In low income to middle income households, boys averaged only 3 months of grammar school-- primarily figuring and reading. Girls often got no education. (Richer households could get more education for their children.) Children worked as laborers. domestics, servants, and house boy/house girl. Many kids lived where they worked, but separate from their home and parents. Most children had chores even if they had no paying job.
Children were to be seen, not heard; to comply without arguing; and often were punished for minor misbehavior. Religious households were more strict. And most all kids, except in richer families, knew hunger at some time in their childhoods.
