    We never stop being kids.

    And we never fully become adults, in a sense. For there’s always room to grow, people & situations to understand, things and perspectives to learn about, and further maturity to be reached.

      i think kids should be allowed to vote. from the moment we’re born, we should have a say. we have adults that act like crybabies anyways, so it balances out.

        We already have an enormous problem of completely unqualified voters being able to vote, so let’s not make it even worse. (in the States, anyway)

          ive given this A LOT of dwell time and thought, and i think we’re both partially right and wrong.

          even when the negatives outweigh the positives, some things are worth doing. every solution is just accounting for as many of the things that can go wrong as we can imagine. but even when things go wrong, we can always fix it. your democracy has gone wrong, and it isn’t enough to just point out the things going wrong. you have to fix it too.
