The Industrial Revolution did have many negative effects on the people of that time. Often in factories there was child labor, poor working conditions, long hours, and low pay.
The children that worked in these factories often had to face many hardships and risks. They aged much too premature and some were malnutrition as a result of working in factories. The Industrial Revolution did in a sense disrupt family life in a way never before seen in the world. It made it so that the young children were out of the house working, and so was the husband.

Although it might have been a hindrance to the society at that time, it molded the future into what it is today. A strong economic system with a vast network of manufacturing. So you see, the Industrial Revolution was a great blessing indeed.
