Answer:

Children performed physical labor for long hours each day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Children were often overlooked by Overseers and paid less than adults

Mandatory education was not in effect until around the 1900s

Children did have opportunities to have apprenticeships in farms, but they could only start at around the age of 14.
