Yeah and I haven’t seen him for some time. He just started. I doubt we will see his face all over the place again even when he is done with college. Not like when he was a kid meeting political agendas of those ok with exploiting children.
A quick Google search of his name and 2019 reveal plenty of articles about him this year, prior to his September start at Harvard and while he was an adult.
Exactly. I would have to do a google search to find anything about him. He isn’t on the news in our faces on our tv day after day after day anymore. He isn’t a kid anymore.
He was an adult at the height of him being on television regularly - he turned 18 in 2018. As I said, he likely isn’t on TV day after day anymore because he’s a full time student again.

Because if we are to see them as children then they should be corrected about the way they speak to adults and about adults. If we are to see them and treat them as an adult who is speaking in adult subjects then they are open to anything an adult is.
Why is it anyone’s business to correct the way they speak to and about adults except their own parents?
It becomes their business when it is directed at them. Someone’s child’s behavior towards you is your business. As for her parents business in correcting their child, by that I guess it would mean they are not doing their job.

And again he just started college and I haven’t seen in way longer than just now as he is starting college.

In which case, any decent adult would correct them politely and not model bad behavior with personal attacks.

He was on television most in 2018. He was an adult for most of 2018. That ruins your theory of him not getting airtime because he’s an adult - he was an adult for much of the height of his media bookings.

Some of you are so delicate you can't even handle children speaking their minds without feeling "attacked" or "scolded".

And some like to use children for political agendas and are very sensitive when words from a child that are words of an adult are treated as words of an adult and criticized as such.

It's right on the tip of my tongue... Perhaps coloring in a safe space would sooth their trauma over kids speaking angrily.
