The poor Victorians would live on the streets, but if they were found by the bobby's (police) they would get taken to the workhouse where they would have a cruel life, they would try to escape but if they got found escaping they would be put into a shed where everyone can see them. Trapped Forever.

This is not entirely true, workhouses were cruel often, but a better alternative than living on the streets. It was mostly families that went into workhouses

What was life like for rich children in victorian times?
