We had to get up in the morning at 10:30 at night, half an hour before we went to bed. I used to have work 25-hour day down at mill, and pay boss for permission to go to work. And when we got 'ome, our mum and dad would kill us and dance on our graves singing Hallelujah.

Sad thing is, they're probably getting a better education that they are at school.

Walk? Why, in my day, we didn't have legs, we had to tunnel through the snow on our bellies. And shovels? Forget about it! We didn't have arms or hands either so we had to use our faces to dig through the snow.

Absolutely they are. They're learning work ethic, morals, common sense and how to think for themselves. I can see why the authorities would be called in to put an end to that! Can't have a bunch of those types running loose in the streets.

I really like to know who started all this crap.

You cant be on a farm and not work it's in the rule book somewhere. First time I drove was in a feild Aunt was pregnant and sick so I got to drive an old station wagon with a hay trailer. Tracker was broken but the hay had to come in even if it ment a 10 year old was driving
