a bad thing about a victorian workhouse is that you gt punished if you dont eat all your food
In the poor workhouses, individuals typically worked long hours ranging from 10 to 16 hours a day, often performing laborious tasks such as breaking stones, picking oakum, or grinding corn. These workhouses aimed to provide relief for the poor while also instilling a sense of discipline through hard work.
Workhouses were abolished because they were seen as inhumane institutions that perpetuated poverty rather than alleviating it. They often subjected inmates to harsh conditions and were considered outdated in terms of providing meaningful support to those in need. As welfare systems developed and societal attitudes changed, workhouses were gradually phased out in favor of more compassionate and effective forms of social support.
