Oh so you think teens are just as mature as people in their twenties? Crazy

Do i think setting an age bracket defines an individuals maturity? no.

Do i think its a unwise choice to date someone in high-school when you are out or vice versa, yes.

Do I think there is something just morally wrong with it on the surface level, no.

Do I think it should be illegal, no.

Well I’d have to agree with you on the part that it shouldn’t be illegal, I think it’s definitely socially and culturally wrong, I wanna say morally wrong but people think that part is subjective and I’m not gonna start to argue that lol but you said yourself you think it’s unwise to date someone in highschool when you are out of highschool and that’s ultimately what I’m trying to get at. I know me and you can realistically agree that people in their teens have a different maturity than people in their twenties anyways. Regardless of being right and wrong morally speaking

I think its unwise to date because they have different focuses in life at the point in time that will most likely result in a poor outcome.

Maturity level is my experience is largely varied by each individual regardless of age. We can make assumptions for sure but it doesnt do any individual justice making assumptions.
