Here's a good read! So true too....

I mean, he does make good points about the construction of adolescence and the flaws therein by parroting what Robert Epstein says on the subject, but then he goes on to be rather anti youth rights, anti-abortion, says family values supersede individual rights, says marriage is the only proper outlet for sex, says it's a tragedy when women die in combat, but not when men do, and then finishes off by saying Christian moral standards are the solution to all societal problems.

Yeah... I really can't get behind any of that. I believe we'd be better off reading Robert Epstein directly rather than this hyper conservative guy's interpretation of him.

I'll admit, I was pretty high when I posted that.

And yeah I agree sex being "only healthy when married" is just religious horseshit.

You know it's funny that Google does not index a lot of youth rights articles on consent etc but the way we as a society right now are treating children and teens is absurd. For hundreds of years nvm THOUSANDS of year teens as young as 15 sometimes younger started families, went to war, and did highly adult things we would think unfathomable in 1st world countries today.

There is 100 percent a strong agenda right now to make adolescents out to be helpless babies with "teen brain" when in reality "teen brain" is just a product of modern infintalization. Treat a group in society as helpless, ignorant, and reckless and they will become that.
