First, there were no "teens" in the 1800's. The idea of teens and the use of the word teenager doesn't happen until the 1940's. Second, girls by the time they were 13 were considered adults and expected to act like adults. They were required to work, get married and become mothers. Young women often left their families to work in the new factory system that was starting and they lived in dorms until they married. Most were married by 18. As children they helped with the family and farm. A 2 year old girl would have chores to do within the family. It would be things like feeding the chickens, but they were expected to participate in the jobs in the family.
