Chilean Minor Daily Life
My Picture, Bibliography, and Description
How does this life compare that of yours when you were 12?
In Chile, children have more responsibilities. Most families in Chile are poor so both the mom and dad have to work. The children are left with balancing their education with work in farms, in the house, or taking care of younger siblings.
What was most surprising about your findings?
Something surprising I found is how fond Chile is to their education. Every kid goes to school up to 12th grade, and afterwards most go to universities. They make sure children are prepared for work in the future.
What parts were expected?
Since most families are poor, the children have to work. It's hard for kids to work multiple hours and focus on their homework.
What do you think that 12yo's life will be like when they are 40?
Kids of higher class will have better jobs because they focus more on education than working to help the family. Lower class usually work in agriculture or low paying jobs.
