    Nah. It’s really not and plenty of them are plenty mature enough to handle simple shit. I washed dishes and did blue berry reading at 14. Low risk, brought in extra money for my hobbies, saved up and got my my first car, taught me the value of money and physical labor. All extremely positive factors in developing my youth.

          All of human history before capitalism? That makes no sense. How could you have a nightmare form of capitalism before it even existed? Get it together, dude.

          We live in capitalism. Therefore, making life worse makes this a worse version of capitalism. Get it now?

          Your argument is really “we did it before, so it’s fine”? We did a ton of things before that aren’t ok. Historical usage of a thing doesn’t make it ok.

            No. Children working existed before capitalism, you’re grasping straws coming up with that conclusion of what I said.
