Summary

The high rates of infantile mortality have provoked that little atention has been paid over the centuries to children. There are few historical data on children. The standards of conduct in our rural families at the beginning of the 20th century have been similar to those described for western societies during the 14th to 18th centuries. Child labour as servants has been preponderant in our rural society until the middle of the present century. This has meant an almost permanent separation from home at very early ages.
