What crime are you thinking of that requires you to be young?
Anyone else miss the good old days of this sub, when people posted actual unpopular opinions and described why they held them? 
Not this everyone will agree so I am gonna post it stuff. >

actual unpopular opinions get removed 🗿 >

bruh, I got banned for a really good unpopular opinion.
Not to mention, the mod messaged me and called me pedophile.
It even got 500+ upvotes. >

Damn, what was the opinion? >

I got in trouble when I was younger. That’s not an excuse, just a fucking fact. >

When you said young I thought something like 10-12 years old lol. Well, that OP was adult enough to know the difference between “committing assault” and “being caught an assault”. This joke is pretty self explanatory. >

Young in your 20s? Since when? I thought you were going to say 14 or something >

Young in your teens? Since when? I thought you were gonna say diaper age or something. >

20s are Adult. Teens and daiper age are not >

20s are young adult lol. Most people are not even out of school until their mid or late 20s. You don't even get to legally drink and experiment with drugs or alcohol until 21, which is just 3 years after you get out of HS (which is a controlled environment for teens). >

Well the 21 rule is an American thing. Almost every other country has younger age restrictions. Also you don't get to legally experiment with drugs when turn 21.
People still being in education in their 20s is irrelevant. If I don't graduate college til I'm 40 am I still young?
When youre a teenager you can drive, vote, join the army and live on your own, being responsible for yourself.
20s is not young >


Well the 21 rule is an American thing

Just because it's an American thing doesn't make it less real. This post was probably written by an American, and even if it wasn't, people in America can share their thoughts about the post using their own real experience. 

you don't get to legally experiment with drugs when turn 21

I guess in America you do lmfao. 

People still being in education in their 20s is irrelevant

No, it's not. It's not about being in college, it's about only having ever been in an educational institution. I'm 21 and don't consider myself young because I've been working in different jobs through HS and early college, then toward the end of my AAS degrees got an internship and a job in the career field I was studying for. I've now got over a year and a half of experience at my current job, 3 years of education in my field, and over 5 years of practical experience relating to my field. So yeah, if you're 40 and still in college, you're not young unless you've been living in your mom's house the whole time and only ever have been attending classes and doing nothing else professionally. 

20s is not young

What does young mean to you? Because to me, not even having lived a quarter of my life yet, 20 seems to meet the definition of young. >

Lol As a person in America I can assure you that 98% of "drug experimentation" is absolutely illegal. >

My favorite is when people cite the frontal lobe not being fully developed until 25 like it's just not possible to know right from wrong until then.  Dude, I cried when I squished a bug when I was like 6 because I imagined it was a bug father with a little bug family.  It doesn't take 25 years to develop empathy. >

I work in a prison. It's not an excuse, but young people have a lot more potential to fix their lives, so the law tries to give them that opportunity if possible. Some of these kids had really rough lives. All they understand is power, violence and domination. It's sad. >

Yep.  This weird idea that being a "juvenile" gets you a pass to do whatever, and then the slate is wiped clean on your 18th birthday, is irrational and bizarre.  Victims aren't more or less hurt based on the age of the perpetrator.
Don't get me started on the "tried as an adult" thing.  If we have the rule, follow the rule. >

It’s because children don’t have the same decision making ability as adults.
