Question 6 • MO-US History II A

What is the effect of child labor on the US economy?

Answer
A
Children will have saved a great deal of money and can spend more later.
B
As adults, these children might struggle to improve their standard of living.
C
As adults, these children will have more marketable skills to improve society.
D
Children make less money than adults and therefore contribute less to the economy.

Explanation

Child labor can keep children from getting an education and developing skills they need for better-paying work. As adults, they may therefore have fewer opportunities to raise their income and improve their standard of living. The best choice is that these children might struggle to improve their standard of living.
