> Modern society tends to infantilize people.

Well, from what I've heard regarding the frontal cortex, adult decision making is fully crystallized on average around age 25. So it kind of makes sense why on average society these days doesn't trust kids with important stuff.

Though, you know, statistics. There are outliers :-)
