Actually, on the subject of age, let me throw a quick little PSA your way. Kids don’t lie to adults about your age on the internet. Please. Let adults live in their comfort zones. I know we often hear it the other way around, which is also not okay, but last night I found out a girl I’d been speaking to who said she was mid twenties was actually sixteen. It just… it makes me feel uncomfortable. Please respect adults and what they want. Please don’t lie so that you can engage with them. It’s not cool. That’s all. Thanks.
#also it makes it difficult for adults to be responsible #an adult is going to talk differently to another adult than they are to a kid or teenager #just don’t lie to people????
But what if we want to be treated as equal human beings? Adults treat children and teenagers like we are stupid. They act like they are better than us.
This isn’t about thinking kids are stupid, this is about keeping kids and adult safe and about abiding the law. False identity is not something to be dabbled with just cos you think you are mature. When you become an adult you realize just how mature you weren’t.
please don’t lie about your age to adults, it is not safe for anybody involved
