    Most of human history…hmm checks notes… since the invention of capitalism about 400 years ago, yes.

    Even serfs under feudal lords had significantly more free time and while basic child labor was common, it was mostly in family run farms.

      Instructions unclear, reverted to feudalism, defended literal, inherited pile of manure with violence

      Pre-industrial societies still expected children to work from young ages. And they would often switch to adult labour in their early teens.
