Detailed explanation-1: -During the industrialization, home life and work life became separated. Women’s role in the industrial economy took a major hit as they took on more of the “housewife” roles while men worked long hours to make money for their families.
Detailed explanation-2: -Working children were often hurt due to industrial accidents on unsafe machinery, uneducated since there was no time for school after working over 12 hours a day, and were infected with illness and disease due to the unsafe working conditions in which they were exposed.
Detailed explanation-3: -With the availability of manufactured goods, a woman’s role as producer within the home was reduced. The household, and the women who made it a home, took on new meaning. The new role of women was to transform the home into a haven for the men who faced daily pressures and dangers in the work place.
Detailed explanation-4: -It is estimated that fifty percent of children who lived during the Industrial Revolution were forced to work instead of getting an education. They often had lifelong consequences, including serious health and mental health issues which prevented them from living their lives to the fullest as adults.
