My kid got comics within his first year. Mostly to rip up and be bemused by the colors (which was fine, I wanted to him to have at least some of the 'toddler on newspapers' experience of my forebears and I had a literal brick of horrible 90s comics for him to be stimulated by), but then around 18 months I began…

Giant Turtle made of Chorus Girls dissolves in jazz hands.

Well, it's a big country with a lot of circumstances, but your situation is not the norm. It's pretty rare to find an industry that 'll let you, and even then turn over tends to be high compared to similar industries in other societies.
