14 years olds?
I was 14 once, and cursed with the memory of what it was like. At that age, I'd have been rigteously indignant if anyone censored or restricted me in any way, as I was aware of the mechanics of adulthood, and practicing to be one.
I wouldn't have understood very well that some things in life I was truly not ready for, and that being denied, say, the right to drive in the Indy 500 wasn't an outright insult to my maturity and an effort of the adult conspiracy to keep it from me, but a rather thoughtful effort to keep me from destroying myself prematurely. In the process.
If it's wrong to exclude younger people from some of these discussions, it might not be a bad idea to temper some of the things we say with the knowledge that there are those out there who lack the experience to weigh what they read, against the consequences. Through no fault of their own.
It's OK to be young, but you have to survive the period in order for it to pay off.
42Is it...Tomorrow....Or just the end of time?
