A reasonable argument is that American children & teenagers are barred from participating in & gaining experience with most aspects of public life: for the most part, they're at home, school, or activities planned for them by adults. They don't work or travel without permission.
Ofc, this would also probably be an argument for *raising* the voting age, especially now that it's become the norm for young adults to be reliant on parents and institutions to meet most of their needs without any insight into how the sausage is made well into the college years

The laws still affect what they can and can’t do, however.

In for raising the voting age. 35 seems like a resonable number.
