My grandmother, a Silent Era Generation woman, was hired to work with 'imbeciles' in an asylum in the 50s. She often said that God blessed those sweet people with an innocent ignorance of the cruelty and inhumanity of the world. She loved working with them (Down Syndrome, etc.)., and did what she could to make life there better for them.
So in the 1950's they would perform a lobotomy using an instrument called an orbitoclast, a modified ice pick, which the physician would insert through the patient's eye socket using a hammer. They would then move the instrument side-to-side to separate the frontal lobes from the thalamus, the part of the brain that receives and relays sensory input. Your grandma was there assisting during these procedures as required via her employment. What a lovely lady.

Slavery had been banned nearly 60 years before the first attempts to introduce legislation to protect children grew teeth. Children (as young as 6) were significant contributors to the economy (apparently), easy to replace and quite disposable. Seems it is easier to fix a guilt-trip for slavery than for abuse of our own children.

100 years ago the average age at death was 7. But you'd be praying for death by the age of 5. Children were used as ship ballast, anvils, asbestos carts, ammunition testers, and tunnel supports for 5¢ a day, 2¢ a day for children under 5. 100 years later though, many complained about the good old days were better
Or the young kids were just tied to the clothesline all day (with an extended leash so they could move around in a circle) while both parents worked the field. As my paternal Grandparents did.
Interestingly, I've ever heard of a Pit Bull being used on a farm for any purpose. They were used in cities, etc. by wealthier families as nanny dogs. Dogs on farms were working dogs such as collies, also good with children. However, on most farms, an older child cared for the younger child(ren). Family histories (including my own) will bear that out.
Weird old ways. Old wives tale, I was told by my mother. I was born mid '50's. Don't wash your hair when you r menstruating??? why? Have no idea. I am sure there r others, but that one always got me!
If you only ever had a bath in the house and not a shower, that would be understandable. But even then, you could have washed your hair over the kitchen sink, instead of while you were in the bath.
@@kyliepechler we had bath, and shower both. As I remember it was about being wet at that time. Also wasn’t allowed to go out after hair washing , had to dry overnight! Pretty strange. And don’t rock an empty rocking chair, or open an umbrella in doors! Very superstitious
@@gentleasa5728 Ah ok, so it was because of superstition and not any practical reason. It is interesting how superstition affects the lives of people who believe in it.
Seems to me we haven't come very far from 100 years ago. There are still plenty of men who want to control women's lady parts and lots of people who believe the color of someone's skin determines their intelligence and morality. It's sad to realize how little progress we've actually made.
Eugenics wasn’t only racist it was classist. With the poor and uneducated being considered dumb. A lot of progress has been made even from the 1970s. Seriously, it was much worse not all that many years ago.

Electroconvulsive therapy in the new age, has helped so many people. Changed their lives for the better. Of course, it’s only ever portrayed horrifically in cinema for “shock” value. It’s a shame as so many people are put off of it because of this.
The Southeast Asian fishing industry still relies pretty heavily on slave labor, too. Some of the people don't even have names, just an "employee number". Do you eat shrimp? You may be supporting slavery.
Using children for work is not such a bad thing. Kids should have some sort of chore to do so they learn responsibility. The diffrence then in America is that then it was vital to make your kids work in order for everyone to live. We have it way to good. Society's children now are proof of that.
I mean sure, eugenics is alive and well. Child labor under the right conditions isn't a force of evil, I wish I learned a skill to ready myself for adulthood rather than be a dumb sheep in the classroom.
The population of the USA was far less 100 years ago, and the luxury of having so much leisure time in the first 18 years of one's life came about as a result of the evolution of the industrial age. In the future, we should expect an entire life of leisure due to AI, if EVIL doesn't get away with it's nefarious plans...

Now, children are coddled, pampered, and told they are never wrong and always a winner. Today's children are soft and most will be feckless, fragile adults who can't cope with the challenges everyday life throws at them.
marmitenot I can't believe we have "free range" children and the majority who aren't allowed to WALK to a playground a block away! It's not that child molesters and kidnappers didn't exist when I was a child, we were taught to be wary of them. Those uninterrupted hours were a valuable part of growing up able to entertain oneself and is linked with creativity as well.
@Susan Kerr Yes, I was generalizing about the country in which I live. I've never lived anywhere else so of course I have no idea. In a country of 330M people, it doesn't bode well for the future.
Re: the prohibition story. You totally left out one of the foundational arguments for banning alcohol. That was its devastating effects on families due to fathers who spent too much time and money in the bar.
yup. People are still homophobic, racist and sexist. Being topless is still only legal for men in most places. People are still being judged on what they wear. I damn hope this changes in the next couple years.
Child marriage is still a huge problem in the U.S that's often overlooked!! Unchained at Last is dedicated to helping girls get out of marriages and make child marriage illegal in all 50 states.
Right? How dare parents treat their kids as individuals growing in journeys of self-discovery! Everyone knows that "gender spectrum" thing is bullshit! Boy or girl! That's all you get and that's all you can be!
@@AliciaNyblade Like seriously! omgg. Why wouldnt u want to put your kid in some corrupted stereotypical mindset before they even understand themselves and other people!
@@kiralefebvre7018 And the best part is, people who freak out over letting kids explore their own gender identities act like today's "traditional roles" have always existed. They haven't. Societies' ideas, and that includes Western society's, about what is masculine and feminine change all the time. Pink was once considered the "it" color for boys (around the 1950s, if I remember right). Circa the 1700s, both boys and girls wore dress-like garments until about age five, and men's fashion included high-heeled shoes and makeup. In fact, well-off gentlemen were expected to show off their status through how they dressed. "Macaroni" was a slang term for a guy who had all the latest fashions (and perhaps showed them off a little too garishly). That's where the line about Yankee Doodle Dandy wearing a feather in his cap and calling it macaroni came from: The song originated amongst the British and was a way for them to make fun of the rebellious colonists, basically calling them country bumpkins who'd think something as simple as a feather in your hat was fancy.
@@AliciaNyblade You're absolutely right! Wow, i didnt know about half of the stuff you wrote in youre comment up until now! thx u for teaching me something new!
Not true. That's a myth. Post mortem photos were obvious with decedent in a bed or coffin. Stands were for the living ONLY and could not support dead weight. Most online photos labeled post mortem are not post mortem.
It seems until about the mid 1960's society actually improved then it kinda started to slow down a bit it really dipped after the turn of the last century.
During the same period of time that credit cards became normal and savings became a thing of the past for far too many. Also during the time "free love" became popular. Then there were the television shows that showed perfect families when perfect families did not exist so people started feeling deprived of what "everyone else" had.
I was in an institution , where some mentally disabled would disapear every now and then. Only to return like in a zombie state, I was told they had their shock therapy. Sad.
It wouldn't hurt a few kids to learn how to work, these days. Little kids should be allowed to be little kids, but knowing how to work never hurt anyone.
from a kid myself i dont agree. School and homework is enough to teach us how to be responsible, the rest is the parents job. You shouldnt be giving kids legitimate work just a few chores here and there that way your not controlling the kids life. Things that were normal back then can make your children absolutely hate you now. So i wouldnt suggest it because you can ruin your relationship with your child and a healthy relationship will promise your child a better life.
100 Years ago children didn't even have an actual childhood even to this day children in other parts of the world have to go by those types of conditions. Greta: You've Stolen My Childhood.

With the exception of out in the open child slavery not much is changed really. Nothing ever changes here. If a politician is caught doing something extra shitty they might get fired, but then replaced with an exact carbon copy over and over and over... If a law is made, then all energy/money goes to turn it back then back again over and over and over...
Though no one can argue that the employment of children could be cruel, working at such a young age also instilled responsibility and common sense, things that many of today's youth do not have.
No? The fuq are you on? What do you mean? Plenty of younger people today DO have responsibilities, or at least want to but can’t because we’re told by adults that we’re too young! And if we don’t have common sense it’s because our parents didn’t TEACH us too! I have common sense only because it is very important to my dad to instill that in his kids( though his efforts haven’t worked for my much older siblings) his motto “you can do anything as long as you think it through”. Your comment reeks of, “Back in my day, kids suffered hard, and that’s how it should be!”

Many people still see kids as an extra money making appendage example, food stamps, child support etc... Edit: don't get me wrong I'm currently getting food stamps however I didn't have my son just to collect money because of his birth or because I would benefit financially. I benefit because he's in my life because he's made it much better by being him. Not because there's a dollar sign attached to him.🤷🏼♀️
It seems like many of the comments are centered around the child labor laws. While it is bad to exploit children in the sense of using them as a source of income; I don’t believe it is bad to allow them to work or gain responsibility with the appropriate supervision. Chores, summer jobs, and even helping around the house at a very young age help mold our youth and teach them life lessons. But they shouldn’t be given a W2 by an employer 😝

Or the young kids were just tied to the clothesline all day (with an extended leash so they could move around in a circle) while both parents worked the field. As my paternal Grandparents did.
Interestingly, I've ever heard of a Pit Bull being used on a farm for any purpose. They were used in cities, etc. by wealthier families as nanny dogs. Dogs on farms were working dogs such as collies, also good with children.
However, on most farms, an older child cared for the younger child(ren). Family histories (including my own) will bear that out.
Prohibition was more complicated than stated .The level of alcoholism never returned to the level before prohibition .

Weird old ways. Old wives tale, I was told by my mother. I was born mid '50's. Don't wash your hair when you r menstruating??? why? Have no idea. I am sure there r others, but that one always got me!
I was born in 65 . Raised by my Grandma who had same rule! Idk why either.
If you only ever had a bath in the house and not a shower, that would be understandable.
But even then, you could have washed your hair over the kitchen sink, instead of while you were in the bath.
@@kyliepechler we had bath, and shower both. As I remember it was about being wet at that time. Also wasn’t allowed to go out after hair washing , had to dry overnight! Pretty strange. And don’t rock an empty rocking chair, or open an umbrella in doors! Very superstitious
@@gentleasa5728 Ah ok, so it was because of superstition and not any practical reason.
It is interesting how superstition affects the lives of people who believe in it.
Seems to me we haven't come very far from 100 years ago. There are still plenty of men who want to control women's lady parts and lots of people who believe the color of someone's skin determines their intelligence and morality. It's sad to realize how little progress we've actually made.
Eugenics wasn’t only racist it was classist. With the poor and uneducated being considered dumb. A lot of progress has been made even from the 1970s. Seriously, it was much worse not all that many years ago.
@@briansullivan5908 I agree that we have laws to protect people against many of those things now but those laws aren't enough to change people's thinking and that is why we still struggle with classism, racism, and other thinking that puts human beings into "categories".

Using children for work is not such a bad thing. Kids should have some sort of chore to do so they learn responsibility. The diffrence then in America is that then it was vital to make your kids work in order for everyone to live. We have it way to good. Society's children now are proof of that.

Now, children are coddled, pampered, and told they are never wrong and always a winner. Today's children are soft and most will be feckless, fragile adults who can't cope with the challenges everyday life throws at them.
marmitenot I can't believe we have "free range" children and the majority who aren't allowed to WALK to a playground a block away! It's not that child molesters and kidnappers didn't exist when I was a child, we were taught to be wary of them. Those uninterrupted hours were a valuable part of growing up able to entertain oneself and is linked with creativity as well.
@Susan Kerr Yes, I was generalizing about the country in which I live. I've never lived anywhere else so of course I have no idea. In a country of 330M people, it doesn't bode well for the future.

Honestly tho 😑 you are born with a gender and parents gotta recognize them

@@AliciaNyblade Like seriously! omgg. Why wouldnt u want to put your kid in some corrupted stereotypical mindset before they even understand themselves and other people!
@@kiralefebvre7018 And the best part is, people who freak out over letting kids explore their own gender identities act like today's "traditional roles" have always existed. They haven't. Societies' ideas, and that includes Western society's, about what is masculine and feminine change all the time. Pink was once considered the "it" color for boys (around the 1950s, if I remember right). Circa the 1700s, both boys and girls wore dress-like garments until about age five, and men's fashion included high-heeled shoes and makeup. In fact, well-off gentlemen were expected to show off their status through how they dressed. "Macaroni" was a slang term for a guy who had all the latest fashions (and perhaps showed them off a little too garishly). That's where the line about Yankee Doodle Dandy wearing a feather in his cap and calling it macaroni came from: The song originated amongst the British and was a way for them to make fun of the rebellious colonists, basically calling them country bumpkins who'd think something as simple as a feather in your hat was fancy.

You forgot to mention the road our Grandparents and Parents took to work! Great video btw!
They used to take pictures of dead relatives in group photos. Dress up uncle Charlie and prop him up in a picture.
Not true. That's a myth. Post mortem photos were obvious with decedent in a bed or coffin. Stands were for the living ONLY and could not support dead weight. Most online photos labeled post mortem are not post mortem.
It seems until about the mid 1960's society actually improved then it kinda started to slow down a bit it really dipped after the turn of the last century.
During the same period of time that credit cards became normal and savings became a thing of the past for far too many. Also during the time "free love" became popular. Then there were the television shows that showed perfect families when perfect families did not exist so people started feeling deprived of what "everyone else" had.
@@GlennaVan there were plenty of tv show style "perfect families" and still are, that was the main audience for those shows back in the day

It wouldn't hurt a few kids to learn how to work, these days. Little kids should be allowed to be little kids, but knowing how to work never hurt anyone.
Totally agree! They should learn young that nothing comes for free
from a kid myself i dont agree.
School and homework is enough to teach us how to be responsible, the rest is the parents job. You shouldnt be giving kids legitimate work just a few chores here and there that way your not controlling the kids life. Things that were normal back then can make your children absolutely hate you now. So i wouldnt suggest it because you can ruin your relationship with your child and a healthy relationship will promise your child a better life.

Though no one can argue that the employment of children could be cruel, working at such a young age also instilled responsibility and common sense, things that many of today's youth do not have.
I don’t know if that is true for a 5 year old
No? The fuq are you on? What do you mean? Plenty of younger people today DO have responsibilities, or at least want to but can’t because we’re told by adults that we’re too young! And if we don’t have common sense it’s because our parents didn’t TEACH us too!

At any point in history......
It seems like many of the comments are centered around the child labor laws.
While it is bad to exploit children in the sense of using them as a source of income; I don’t believe it is bad to allow them to work or gain responsibility with the appropriate supervision.
Chores, summer jobs, and even helping around the house at a very young age help mold our youth and teach them life lessons. But they shouldn’t be given a W2 by an employer 😝
