We may start this dispute by defining the concepts. What exacrly is a child? All over the world, with exception of a handful of especially backward US states, it's a person under the age of 18. That age threshold has been put there a century ago. Is it still adequate regarding the modern levels of education and personal autonony a common teenager exercises? I highly doubt. Also, another proof of hypocricy - what is the age bar for driving in that very same country? 15 or 16 depending on state. So a person can be granted responsibility not only for their own life bit for the lives of anyone else, but cannot legally have sex with someone 5 eats older, shoot porn - if your views prevail - start transition. Because of some backward puritanish attitudes like yours willing to control others' lives.
So even with thos definition of a child I can tell you from my humble observations there are nany children let's say 13 or 14 who already know very well what they know from life and there are many others (a kit of the users here i guess) who don't even at 30 or 40.
Age itself is not necessarily an objective criterion.
Also can you tell me if so many opposed it and so many who try regret it, why do you think is it so massively encouraged as you claim and why has it become so popular to even be a topic to discuss?
What are your thoughts on transgenderism?

You can count me a nice person then after all, even if I can be occasionally rude and confrontational when trolling
