This is arguable as a lot if the "all people before capitalism were mud farmers" claptrap comes from the fact that the priests of capitalism always leave non market/capitalist goods out of their calculations. Like medieval pesants were wealthier than early modern farmhands because they had the commons.

hm the fed's survey of consumer finances says the median household wealth in the us is $192,900 as of 2023 and that seems pretty high

That covers ~15 years of the average cost to raise a child. Huh, maybe this is the source of the child labor push.
