  2. I want to talk about the part where the kids drop out of school to work. I thought it was a bad idea for the kids to work because they didn´t get paid for working so why would they drop out of school. What do you think? The part I thought was the most interesting was the interviews with the kids from the Great Depression. I think that kids had it really hard. What do you think?

  3. I think it´s because they need people to work in the fields and they need more help around the house. I think they wanted to know what the kids had it hard around the depression time.
