1 answer

Modern teenagers are least likely to experience working extremely long hours compared to adolescents from 100 years ago. A century ago, many teenagers were part of the workforce, often in physically demanding jobs and working long hours due to economic necessity. Today, while some teens do work, labor laws and societal norms have generally reduced the number of hours they are expected to work, especially compared to the early 20th century. In contrast, issues like drug and alcohol temptation, cyberbullying, and academic pressure are more prevalent in the contemporary context.
