Employing 11-year-olds in coal mines used to be a perfectly legal and acceptable practice as well.My grandma got married to Huck when she was 14 or 15. There are several cultures where the young man or woman has a 'coming of age' celebration. It's almost like a formal this kid is ready to date and find a life partner moment.
The whole shifting of morals relative to cultural norms makes the crime of pedophilia challenging. I really like Dink's term the Good Ole Charlie Brown used as well to delineate children from mid to late teens.
