Hi, curious to know more about how children were viewed in society and how they were treated, say in ...
ancient greece, in athens
in the ottoman empire
in the middle ages
in America, during the revolution or the civil war
I would be happy to get your perspectives on any of these time periods. Other time periods are also fine by me. I'm just curious because I saw this comment on reddit: "This may surprise you, but its only in the last 100 years that children are seen as anything but a burden and slave labor."
Thanks!
