Such as the legal age at which one reaches adulthood, the pedagogic studies which are dedicated to these specific subjects and etc.
Really? If some laws aren't created through irrational processes then...

As for specifically the 'legal age of adulthood'... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Age_of_majority#Age_14
*There is a country in this world where the legal 'age of adulthood' is as low as 14... and there are countries in this world where the legal 'age of adulthood' is as high as 21*
Based on a seven-year difference in opinion... I'm going to call any concern for a 14-year old being considered 'adult enough' to make the vast and wide majority of their own decisions: bullshit.
Show me your studies, define adulthood, and I will proceed to show you why the are philosophically worthless in estimation of mid-late teenagers as potentially adults, so long as an utterly retarded arbitrary age-line is not invoked as the definition of 'adulthood' (which would immediately cease to really mean anything as a result).

Why *should* they have to wait? I've yet to see a good answer for this... and it is probably equally common that the youngster is male in these cases (cougars, yknow).
And what crime is happening, exactly?
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
