You think human children are property, why do you care about guardianship being beneficial to human children but not that owning other creatures should be beneficial to those other creatures.
What is the trait difference between a human child and a chicken legally owned by a human that makes it ok to kill and eat one but not the other, neither human children nor chickens can defend your rights in a war

I enjoy cuddling plushies
Joy is not childish, the idea that maturity means coming to accept that the world is anti-joy is an invitation to change the world to make it pro-joy
Also boys are expected to give up plushies before girls which is weird and probably contributes to male vulnerability
Cuddling plushies gives me gender euphoria because I wasn't allowed to
What are we here for if not to have fun?

Banning under 16s from social media because "studies show social media causes xyz" is a perfect example of the mistake of individualizing social problems bleeding out from psychiatry to society at large
If social media makes people under 16 depressed have eating disorders or generally lose executive function or other effects like these its probably affecting a lot of people over 16 too.
I challenge you to think of anything we would lose in society by fixing this for everyone without blanket banning or surveillance

Banning social media for under 16's means everyone has to prove their age which means no privacy for anyone.
Its also yet another authoritarian tool in the states belt that will be used by fascists
I hope under 16s get around it by using FLOSS software and moving away from proprietary social media, I hope they discovery anticensorship technology like Simplex Tor and I2P

@juliette Teens will just move to decentralised open source encrypted apps where they can't be policed. And I'm not talking about fediverse where individual instance owners can potentially be held accountable I mean stuff like SimpleX Cwtch or Briar
