Correct me if I'm wrong, but for most of history, weren't "kids" already married and working to support a family when they were in their teens?

I know my grandparents, my great-grandparents, and a few before them were married before they turned 18. And two of my grandparents told me they worked at a factory when they were around 7!

Add to the fact that if you got married and then moved to another state, it could be years before you see your parents again.

After my paternal great-grandmother got married at 16 and moved across the country, she never saw her parents again. They did exchange letters but that was it. And according to my grandfather (her son), it was pretty common.
