Pathetic fool loses the argument so he starts hurling vile insults :-D

Sorry Clown. You lost.

You're deflecting because you can't argue anything on the merits.

Never before in human history have teenagers been as intensely infantilized as they are in the USA right now.

Look at pre-literate societies too.

The idea that we are children until some time in our early twenties is brand new. Nobody ever considered such ridiculous bullshit until about 20 years ago. Now there are huge numbers of Americans thoroughly convinced of this obviously false, vile, bigoted dogma.

Except recognizing basic scientific facts :-D

Yes it has.

and internet randos claiming qualifications they obviously don't have is pathetic trollery.

What is "general maturity"? What is the scientific tool used to measure it?

or you just made up some bullshit to justify your bigotry against young adults aged 14-20?

re: "human psychological development doesn’t end until about 23-25"

This is an urban myth. It has been thoroughly debunked.

re: "our level of intelligence requires a longer incubation time"

Your example was dogs. They reach adulthood in around 1 year. We take longer, yes, about 14 years.

Brains don't "finish cooking"... they change continuously throughout our lives (just like our bodies do)

and even if there was some magical point of "finish cooking" that wouldn't make people below that age mentally incompetent.

you are jumping thru tons of illogical hoops in order to justify demeaning and degrading young adults. Stop it.

There are clear obvious scientific facts at work here. They are not technicalities.

How I feel does not make reality real. If I feel like a dog, I am still human.

Nature makes us adults. The process is called puberty. There are several visible objective secondary sexual characteristics which make pretty damned clear who is where in the process.

"finished developing" is a stupid red herring. Our bodies and brains never stop changing. There is literally no point of "finished developing"

Our brains are largest around age 13. We get adult brains along with our adult bodies during puberty. This is a well-known scientific fact.

If anyone is "insulated from the real world" that was a choice society made. Was it the intentional infantilization of young adults? Keeping them locked out of adult society means they stay mentally children. We created this problem. We can remove it.

Many 13 year olds are still pubescent. None are children. Nature turns children into adults. There is lots of individual variation.
What turns a kitten into an adult cat? Puberty. What turns a puppy into an adult dog? Puberty. What turns a child into an adult human? Puberty. This is not difficult.

Teenagers Are Adults

(not sure this is an opinion. it's biological fact. but peeps get VERY Angry when I write it)
