Kids deserve all the respect and love. They don't deserve being treated as a property by adults and their parents.
They can make decisions for themselves, consent and think for themselves.
It's mainly society's fault that they're more seen as a nuisance or a object to rule over.
Children can be erotic, sexy and feel hornyness. And they deserve the right to express it! Same with being free about anything else regarding their sexuality or gender.
But it's parents fault that kid has a easy way of drinking/eating harmful stuff tbh
Also I'm mostly speaking about maybe 5~8 and up kids, lower it's kinda harder for me to agree on their decision making but y'know, I haven't read much about those things xD
It's mostly my own logic and experience
