Child Labor

Girls at a textile mile New York city in 1911,are locked in  a building.The girls can’t leave or their pay will be docked.  On day the building burns down and they can’t get out ,so they have to get out through the windows.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       There are three kids who tells a reporter what they do one says he works for a coal buisness. He is a coal breaker he sits in a little box and pulls out coal.There is a girl who works for a Georgia Textile as a spinner.Then there is a boy who shucks oysters with his parents.                                                                                                                                                                       My reaction was I was surprised that kids had such a hard time just to help their parents and only getting like 15 cents.
