Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Working Children of Boston: A Study of Child Labor Under a Modern System of Legal Regulation In the days before the English factory acts these questions were all answered definitely in the negative. More recently they have been answered in the negative by many studies of the labor of chil dren in this country, from the early Massachusetts inquiries to those which led to the 19-volume report on Condition of Woman and Child Wage Earners.1 But each year legislation regulating child labor has tended to become more voluminous; child labor codes have been enacted and uniform child-labor laws have been proposed and passed, in part at least, by a considerable number of States. The public conscience has approved a 14-year minimum age and the requirement of employment certificates until 16 years of age, with compulsory school attendance up to 14 and between 14 and 16 if a child is not employed. Nevertheless, until the questions asked above can be answered absolutely in the affirmative it is impossible to settle back in the complacent belief that the child - labor problem has been solved. Under each more advanced form of regulation, therefore. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Child Labor in Greater Boston 18801920 written by Ann Piper and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2014-02-24 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From its earliest days, Boston decreed that its children be taught to read and write English and understand the laws. In 1826, free and compulsory education was introduced. The wish to educate the young conflicted with the great need for unskilled labor in the fields and factories. With adult wages low, schoolchildren helped their families by selling newspapers, shining shoes, hawking goods, or scavenging. On reaching 14 years of age, many children left school to find full-time work. Fearing that these children would end up in low-paying, dead-end jobs, Boston Public Schools added trade schools to teach craft skills--carpentry, printing, and metalwork for boys; dressmaking, cooking, and embroidery for girls. The national struggle to ban child labor began in the mid-19th century and ended with the passage of the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938. This book describes the efforts in Boston and surrounding towns to keep children in school, at least until age 16, before permitting them to start work. The bulk of the images included were taken by Lewis Wickes Hine during his several visits to Boston between 1909 and 1917.
