How else are the kids going to learn?
I'm not being snarky; sometimes living with other cultures requires allowing them to do things we don't like; like killing whales and taking children out in skin boats.
I've seen some pics of extremely small Inuit children using extremely sharp knives. This freaked me out, greatly, but it's not my lane....
Thanks for the cool pics. You're probably setting the stage for my wife and my next episode of "wanderlust".
