STOP CHILD LABOR
March 11, 1905 Written By: Lauren Pair; Muckraker
Poor Wages & Poor Jobs
About 1.7 million kids worked in the worst conditions. All kids from ages 10-15 either worked in textile mills and or coal mines. The bosses wanted kids to work dangerous jobs because they were cheaper and had more energy to work long rough hours.
Help get rid of Child Labor
Kids are like rats to their bosses. They dont care what happens to the kids, they are just being selfish and using kids as their experiment.
Kids doing adult work
As soon as kids can lift something and do something then they are put into a bad environment and doing adult work that they are to young for.
Bleeding hands, Swollen hands, Cut hands
When people use needles and dangerous machines when they have to use their hands for 10-12 hours a day they get so tired. Their hands get cut off, start bleeding, swollen hands, cuts all over their arms. No kid wants to go through that but they really don't have a choice.
Put an END to Child Labor
"Breaker Boys" worked in coal mines where they could get blow up, trampled and worked 14-16 hours EACH and EVERY day. Most of the kids have NEVER seen the inside of a school, like EVER!
