> If you go by the actual years of the legal system to treat your kid as an independent individual, you probably have wrong approach to parenting. Oh I agree 100%. It's a pragmatic view, not the best one. But the laws are what they are for a reason. |

For the sake of being able to uphold those laws on a societal level, but not in terms of being decent parents and family.
E.g. drinking alcohol in my country is legal only from 18, but I will teach my children about pros and cons of alcohol, how to use it responsibly much earlier. I won't punish them if they go out to party with their friends and consume alcohol at 16 years old.
