The majority of Inuit people from Alaska are nomads, moving from one place to another, hunting and fishing to survive. They don’t tend to live in houses, preferring tents or houses built from ice, called ‘igloos’. It is quite common for a man to have several wives.

In some parts of Kentucky and Virginia, USA, it is quite normal for girls of twelve or thirteen to get married and start a family. Often their husbands are only sixteen or seventeen, so young couples tend to live with their parents until they finish their education. Many schools in these areas have crèches to look after their pupils’ babies while they are studying.
