Most of the time when people say they have an unpopular opinion, it turns out it's actually pretty popular.

Do you have some that's really unpopular and most likely will get you downvoted?

    Do people really believe that 20 year olds are children and no one ever in the entire history of the world ever noticed this, and the only people who ever got this right are in the USA in the last 20 years?

    That is just astoundingly ridiculous.

    Your subjective opinions on who is "mature" are irrelevant.

    13 year olds are also different from 19 year olds

    and 13 year olds are different from 7 year olds

    I have seen people literally argue that a romantic relationship MUST be abusive because one of the lovers is only 19 and therefore "still a teen" ... the dogma that says teens are children is absolutely false and it is damaging the hell out of young people.

    This 4 minute vid explains it pretty well. https://youtu.be/12J1f0Zqaqw

    If a child is raised by wolves do they ever become "mature"?

    "maturity" is purely subjective. there is no way to measure it. what is perceived as mature varies a lot from culture to culture.

    Nature makes us adults through a process called puberty. Society cannot change that. It is biological reality.
