Answer:
The percentage of children working increased decade by decade
Explanation:
Child labor can be described or explained as the situation where the children are exposed to tedious or dangerous work that normally they are not capable of doing, based on the use of force or taking the advantage of their conditions. This is usually characterized by low pay, that is the money been given to the children is lower compared the work they are meant to do.
Child laborers often worked to help support their families, but were forced to forgo education.
In conclusion, though the percentage of child labor was increasing every decade, but during the period from 1902 to 1915, child labor committees emphasized reform through state legislatures. Many laws restricting child labor were passed as part of the progressive reform movement of this period.
