The Industrial Revolution had many positive effects,
but also had many negative effects. As a result of the Industrial Revolution,
the cities of England had extremely terrible living conditions. The cities
of England did not have a lot of things such as sanitary codes, building
codes, education, protection, drains, and garbage disposal. As a result
of the population growth from the Industrial Revolution, the cities were
overcrowded. The working conditions were also terrible. many children worked
in dirty factories and got many injuries from the machines. Children had
to work 14 hours a day, for 6 days a week. They were only allowed one 40
minute break during the day, which was their lunch break. Finding out this
information had me upset for a while but I am glad that I learned so much
about such an important subject, and I had to share this information with
someone because I felt it was important for me to spread the information
so people could appreciate things they have now, like education. Many kids
take education for granted but if they knew the information I know now, I
think they would change their minds. Well, I have to go now. Hope to see
or talk to you soon.
Your Loving Niece,
Tiana Warren
