What we see too often is those who regard unemployment as a lifestyle complain that they can't afford to eat, their idea of eating is takeaway and not cooking for yourself anf if they do they want the best cuts.
As for kids as free labour, do some sociology research and you will find that was exactly what it was, more kids to tend the crops so you could live, I remember that from my uni days researching the industrial revolution, was common here and in britain so I imagine USA would be much the same.
I think the book i used most was a sociology of australia post industrial revolution by Giddens.
