the mindset that ppl are "mature for [their] age" is fr a gateway to grooming. u do not want to be treated like that. trust me, if im still a kid, y& #39;all are too. there& #39;s a fine line between respecting younger people and treating them like theyre mature + https://twitter.com/emercldx/status/1307198644311871488">https://twitter.com/emercldx/...

+ adults. if you& #39;re uncomfortable with teasing about your age, that& #39;s FINE, but wanting to be treated like an adult is definitely not the way to go, i promise you it will do more harm than good. regardless, if you are 12-15 and interacting with 18+ y/os in a group chat +

+ i& #39;m telling you, you shouldn& #39;t be. if you& #39;re under 13 you shouldn& #39;t even be on social media. please just talk to people your age, as usually if an 18+ y/o wants to talk to you on social media in private, as a 12-15 year old , you should be worried. that& #39;s a red flag. +

+ i know this thread is kinda ramble-y but tl;dr if ur 12 get off social media, if ur 13-15 ur not an adult, ur brains r still developing (mine is too) and u definitely dont want to be treated like an adult.
