Society seriously needs to start accepting, that childern are humans too.

Do you know all the stories about men avoiding doing CPR on women because of the SA allegation fears? Or just refusing to help women in need in general? You're not fucking prepared what the world is going to look like for kids in 10 years, if this trend isn't stopped.

And yes, I am calling it now.
Soon, we will see in the news a case of a guy letting a kid die, because he was accused of grooming before in his life. At by the point media even notices, we're going to have an entire generation of traumatized kids, who were never talked to as equals on our hands.

I've been concerned about this for a while as well. It seems like even normal people these days would rather avoid interacting with children at all. 18 year olds will refuse to talk to people 2 grades under them in school because they're "minors". It's really sad and a sign of how broken most people are these days. It's like people don't think they can trust themselves NOT to rape children, so they just never interact with them.

It's as if as a society we forgot that children need adults. We're their guardians and role models. I remember when I was young, there were plenty of adult celebrities that made content targeted towards children. And they would host regular meetups and events where kids would get to meet them and take pictures etc. They wouldn't treat the kids they met as equals, but they would say things like "stay in school for me, ok?" or "always listen to your parents."
Those people understood their role in children's lives as a role model, and did their best to make sure they lived up to that responsibility. Nowadays you have YouTubers who's audience is primarily children and they're very aware of that. And yet they have strict rules about "not interacting with minors". As if anyone over the age of 17 gives a shit about them.
