    Explanation:

    The reports and history textbooks report that in the early 1800s in New England most of the workers from textile mills were female. Most of them were younger than fifteen years.

    It is said that in Rhode Island there has been 40 percent of mill workers have been younger than twelve.

    It has been very common for New England Yankee families to sen their daughters for work in these textile factories. They were also easily replaced by immigrant female workers who were looking for any kind of job, so the owners could pay them even less and exploit them even more.

    Even with the strikes that these female workers started in the mid-1830s, the practice hasn't stopped because they were replaced with even younger workers who weren't influenced by ideas of worker solidarity.
