Explanation:

Interest groups, also called special interest groups or pressure groups, any association of individuals or organizations, usually formally organized, that, on the basis of one or more shared concerns, attempts to influence public policy in their favour. All interest groups share a desire to affect government policy to benefit themselves or their causes.

Their primary goal is to have a policy that exclusively benefits group members or one segment of society (e.g., government subsidies for farmers) or a policy that advances a broader public purpose (e.g., improving air quality). They attempt to achieve their goals by lobbying—that is, by attempting to bring pressure to bear on policy makers to gain policy outcomes in their favour.

Child labor was big back in the 1890s. Children were deprived of their childhood. Instead of playing and having fun they were put to work. Instead of school they had to provide for their family. Ages 10 and up started to work. Most work places like coal mines were very harmful to the kids. Just from breathing the pollution in to cutting them self on work equipment it was a very dangerous place. In 1938 child labor was officially discontinued.
