Do you also teach 'your kids' how to sort out the coal at the end of a coal-chute, because that was the "real world" before progressive reformers fought fuckers like you to give them the hope of a future? You are such a complete skin full of swill that I will merely put an excerpt here for you to learn from.

"Forms of child labor, including indentured servitude and child slavery, have existed throughout American history. As industrialization moved workers from farms and home workshops into urban areas and factory work, children were often preferred, because factory owners viewed them as more manageable, cheaper, and less likely to strike. Growing opposition to child labor in the North caused many factories to move to the South. By 1900, states varied considerably in whether they had child labor standards and in their content and degree of enforcement. By then, American children worked in large numbers in mines, glass factories, textiles, agriculture, canneries, home industries, and as newsboys, messengers, bootblacks, and peddlers.

In the early decades of the twentieth century, the numbers of child laborers in the U.S. peaked. Child labor began to decline as the labor and reform movements grew and labor standards in general began improving, increasing the political power of working people and other social reformers to demand legislation regulating child labor. Union organizing and child labor reform were often intertwined, and common initiatives were conducted by organizations led by working women and middle class consumers, such as state Consumers’ Leagues and Working Women’s Societies. These organizations generated the National Consumers’ League in 1899 and the National Child Labor Committee in 1904, which shared goals of challenging child labor, including through anti-sweatshop campaigns and labeling programs. The National Child Labor Committee’s work to end child labor was combined with efforts to provide free, compulsory education for all children, and culminated in the passage of the Fair Labor Standards Act in 1938, which set federal standards for child labor."

You regressive asshats don't even know what the fuck you are talking about. You soo take for granted the way things are now. As if its the way they've always been. What are you, a millionaire teacher? If not then you do not stand to benefit from the feudalistic society that you seem to yearn a return to. How do you think change happens? Someone somewhere hopes for something better and then sets about trying to get bumps on logs like you out the fucking way. If it were up to you no-nothings, humans would all still be living in caves and howling at the moon for want of food and water.
