        This point isn't open for disagreement.

        Many studies have shown that 14 = rational adult thought. Your personal anecdotes don't change that, nor do your personal thoughts or biases. That's just how it is.

          That is irrelevant. That just means they are capable of thinking clearly. That doesn't mean they have the maturity and experience necessary to make an informed decision.

          Or does it mean that kids will have the attention span or the interest to to be able to make an informed decision.

                My best friend's little sister is 14, and she's kind of cute. Would it be OK for me, as a 17-year-old, to get involved with her?

                      I was expecting a much more nuanced, and um, less wrong response.

                            WOOT! A signal I can ignore anything that follows.

                            Ozzy, regardless of your personal opinion on the matter, EVERY point can be open for disagreement. Even scientifically indicated ones. Nobody understands the brain well enough to seriously state that 100% for certain, rational adult thought occurs at precisely 5200 days after birth, or anything similar. Neither can you necessarily agree that you and Sava hold the same opinion on what 'rational adult thought' is.

                            Open debates are what makes this forum fun. Saying it's not open for disagreement, just says you've closed your mind, which isn't good for any of us.

                              It's thinking like yours that let Hitler come to power.
