I don’t know how we reached this point of viewing teens as not being capable of forming full thoughts. I don’t think we give them enough credit.

Society does that with everything. The world has become overly permissive and too cowardly to call something right or wrong. Or even worse, selective when when it comes to judging conduct. If I'm a Brewer fan, it's no big deal. If I'm a fan of their arch rival it's a travesty. It happens in sports, & even worse, religion & politics. It shouldn't matter what "team" committed the foul.
