Description

According to the teachings of a great leader Kim Jong Il, all people have right to independence.

My argument is that a 6 year old girl has a right to independence as long as she is not harming the independence of others.

For example, if she had sex with an adult man and they both wanted it, other people should not interfere. It didnt harm anyones independence.

The teachings of a dear leader say that all people have right to independence and that no one should violate the independence of others.

But why do people violate the independence of 6 year old girl by forbidding her to make decisions about her body? She is the owner of her body, nobody else.

You have no right to tell others what to do with their body.

Little 6 year old girl maybe doesnt know everything, but that doesnt mean you are allowed to tell her what to do with her body. Her body is hers. You dont own her. The opposite case would be slavery.

I dont understand why people think they have right to forbid children from having sex, watching porn, masturbating...ect.

Children are not slaves. Their bodies belong to them. If they want to have sex every day, thats their choice. It doesnt violate anyones independence.

Now, there are some people who say that childs independence is not important. To those I say: Are you saying your independence is not important either? In the same way you violate childs independence, you give an excuse for others to violate your independence.

I have a dream that one day we will live in a society where children are free and where everyone is free. But that is hard due to the american imperialism.
