Age Is Just a Measurement.

Age. What is it? It's merely a measurement of time. Nothing else. It doesn't serve as a way to figure out what someone is like at a more personal level. Age tells nothing about a person except the physical state of their body. All it is, is an excuse to make judgement about a person before you actually get to know them. Just because a teenager is a teenager does not mean that they are any less capable of doing things any adult could do. Decision making is the same. It does not depend on age, but maturity and responsibility. For example: just because I am 17 doesn't necessarily mean I AM 17. All it really means is that I can't legally drink or smoke, and that I am still in high school and can't go into sex shops. That's all it means legally but I think that's bullshit. Obviously drinking and smoking shouldn't be legal til you're 18/21 anyway because some people are still very immature then. Even when some "adults" turn 21 they can still be immature as fuck and should still be put in time out. IN CONCLUSION, people should stop being so prejudice and get to know people before they judge them on age. Why does age really matter any way? Just for legal purposes which are complete bullshit anyway.
