What is the difference and similarities between colonial children and modern children?

My comparison and contrast is about how a colonial kid was treated and how a kid today got treated.

boys and girls had to play with the items they found because their parents couldn't afford the toy or they did not have time to make the toy. boys and girls got punished if they didn't do what someone told them. Kids had to bring gifts for the teacher because back then that's how teachers got paid.

Boys had to go to school

8 hours a day, 6 days per

week. At school, boys had

to memorize almost

everything. They only had a piece of paper with hardly

anything on it. At home,

their father taught them to

farm, cut firewood, and

to fix tools.

Back then a girl only

went to school to learn

basics and a few other

things. Girls retired from school when they got to high school. when they're with their mother taught them how to cook, sew, and milk the cow.

On the other hand kids, today were treated very differently because boys and girls went to the same school, same class. Boy and girls were treated equally and if they got punished they don't get hit. Today, we don't need to memorize stuff because we have more resources. All kids weren't forced to work. Finally, kids have got more freedom, however not all of us use it wisely.

Some similarities between colonial kids and kids today is that we both go to school filling our heads with knowledge. Both also get punished, but not the same way. Both had home school and did chores for their house. Lastly, both had religious beliefs
