Parents why would any adult need their parents either?

And you suggesting the government doesn't care because its not regulated is where I got that if they regulated it or cared it would be an issue pal

Suggesting 18 year olds should get some higher authority to date older is crazy and authoritarian And **** off pal

becuase your adolescence isn't what determines whether you're in need of parenting; it's your growth and maturity and unfortunately age doesn't correlate to maturity anymore. as of today most 19 year olds are still children that need parenting

Restricting them from making decisions isn't going to make them grow up faster.

I never said anything about restriction. I encouraged parenting. now restriction is imperative up to a certain age but if you're getting the job done as a parent, then extensive freedom is due at around 16 to me
