All of that takes place in early teens in rural areas.

And yet they manage it in spite of the legal age of maturity being 18. Nothing would really change if the age was increased to 21, except there would have to be a parent or guardian signing off on things.

I owned my first truck somewhere around 14. Maybe 13.

First got out after squirrels at 9, ducks the same year, and deer later in that season. I was 11 when I got my first deer. Now, you have to be older than that just to take the required hunter safety courses.

Subsistence REQUIRES those tags the kids get. A family of 6 with two teens can take four deer. And four elk if they can get em, which is not likely. So more likely three deer and one elk... Which is decent meat for a year.

And that takes driving. And driving takes owning a truck.
All of that takes place in early teens in rural areas.

At 14, here, 'kids' were driving grain trucks. Not the semi with a pup, but still essential to family farm economics.
