I remember growing up and learning about how horrible the past was to children, with everything from forced marriages to older men, to having to work in literal coal mines and industrial machines. How there was a serious phrase "Children are to be seen, not heard" as advice for parents to keep their kids silent. To say nothing of how literally beating your children just as daily ritual was considered normal for centuries.
I thought "Wow, thank God I am growing up in a civilized era that respects children as human beings."
On the plus side, lots of us are raising our kids right. I learned a lot from my childhood, and then had like a 14-year gap between kids to learn even more. My youngest will be a good man who does the goddamn dishes.
It's still horrible, really. There's a lot of work to do
