the goalposts haven't been shifted mate the circumstances have changed with their age so the dynamic has changed nice try though brainlet that only works if someone tries to change the focus arbitrarily, but i'm just going off your own point that you set up. so unfortunately you can't use that there mate sorry > now it's ok because they're still a child but almost aren't so it's ok to call them childish in your argument because you didn't think of that. at 10 years old, that is a child at 16 years old that is a young adult just out of childhood or at least is generally considered to be if you tell a 10 year old to stop being childish, its illogical because they are a child if you tell a 16 year old to stop being childish, it makes sense because they're now a young adult > despite you saying people don't mature until ~23 earlier. yes, still true. but maturity doesn't happen over night. its cumulative. and there are levels to it. someone at 5 is more of a child than someone at 10, and someone at 15 and someone at 20. i shouldn't have to point this out as its basic logic but here we are
