That's...really not true.
Farmers prior to this time, in particular, would have passed their lands on to their children, and that would have been a vital source of livelihood for them.

In every agricultural->industrial transition I’m aware of, the kids are desperate to get out of farming and into the higher paying, less arduous industrial jobs.
Sure?
I'm not sure how that's related, though.
Inheriting that farm from Dad was not “vital” to their livelihoods.
