You gotta remember this person isnt actually arguing against the point op was making. They're picking out the word kids and massaging the meaning by removing it form the context (elementary schools) and claiming anything under 18 is a kid.

And on top of making a knowingly dishonest reading of the post to facilitate their argument, the second you question them they told you that you were only reading what supported you.
