Alongside so much else, these fuckers aren't taught the concept of trauma well. The more informed of them think it's only debilitating trauma that keeps you awake every night and anything less just isn't trauma. Others basically think it's some mystical debuff.

There's also something to be said about the barrage of assertions regarding what their adolescent self would feel or whether what teens want and what they need are the same thing. Children regularly hurl themselves into situations that might harm our traumatise them, their willingness isn't reason enough to facilitate that.

Me, my twin and my brother from aunt jumped from first house floor balcony into a thin rubber pool when we were 10(and he was like 5) because we were reenacting a scene from the movie, does that mean that we were 100% aware of the stuff that could happen? It thankfully didn't except few butt bruises as usual but point stands, and that's just one out of dozens of similar stuff we did that day.

Not same comparison, but just a point that kids do stupid shit without thinking.

Funny thing is, as far as I can see nobody asked the important question: Would it also be ok if the one kissing the young and sweet boy was Smeagol?

What were the ages of the people in the picture?

if you read the screenshot you'd see the boy was 15 and Demi was 19
