 * Example 1 Before children started to work they started with small jobs. Young girls worked along thier mothers, and teenage girls learn how to sew, cook, wash, and tend the dairy. The boys worked alongside thier older brothers and fathers in the fields, and around the barn.**

Example 2 Poorer families had kids preforming jobs at a young age too bring in some money. These jobs included picking stones out off the fields or hauling away firewood, and girls did housework. From ages six to seven boys could be employed to rake hay, and hoe corn and potatoes. The cost of the job was always agreed on before teh job was done.** [|www.osv.org/explore_learn/document_viewer.php?Action=View&DocID=68] asa sheldons boyhood [|**http://www.osv.org/explore_learn/document_viewer.php?DocID=35**] **hiram munger

conclusion conclusion I think that the 21st century is better to live in than the 18th. I believe this because you have more of a childhood when you lived in the 21st because you spent less time working and more time doing homework, or being with friends or family. In the 18th century kids started to work at a young age. Girls and boys had different jobs. A job for a young girl would be to work alongside their mothers learning how to sew, cook, wash, and tend to the dairy. Boys worked alongside theirfathers in the fields or anywhere else they would be needed. In this century most kids just have to make their beds, clean their rooms and the bathrooms, and sometimes do an extra chore. If your family was poor in the 8th century, you could be hired by neighbors to bring in some money for your family. The girls could be asked to do normal housework or care for children. For boys ages six to seven you could be assigned a small job like raking hay or hoeing corn and potatoes. In the 21st We can't get a real job until we are sixteen, but we can do smaller jobs. Sometime kids ages 12 and up can be asked to babysit for some money. This money would not go to your family. It would be yours to keep, because you earned it. In the 18th century boys would become ans apprentice. They would leave their families and go to learn a certain skill like blacksmithing, coopering, and printing. The family will provide them with food, shelter, and education on that skill. They wouldn't become an apprentice until they are sixteen years of age. The downside of this would be leaving your family and having to be with another family. This would also cost your family alot of money. Church was very important to people in the 18th century. Before the mass your famiy would get together and pray. You would also be expected to wash up and put on your very best clothes.You would go to mass every sunday. The mass would be about an hour long in most towns. In others the mass could be up to two hours long. Most sacraments like babtism would be presented at a regular sunday mass. Religion has changed to be less important to our lives since the 18th century. Most people just go to church on sunday, and some families don't go at all. The dress has changed as well. Most people just got o church in jeand and t-shirt.
