The legal age of consent is between the ages of 18 and 21.

But from since birth, some things have been wrong.

What's an adult? And what's a child?

A question I've been asking for quite a while.

It's time to grow up and change your childish ways. They say

Yet when the demands for change happen, you're told to act your age

So I ask: What's an Adult? And what's a child?

Too immature to hang with friends.

Yet somehow, you're mature enough to be your sibling's parents.

I know I've asked this before. What's an adult? And what's a child?

Seventeen-year-old Stacy Jacobs has gone missing.

And the comments about her are so degrading.

Pardon this is a question that I've asked multiple times.

What's an adult? And what's a child?

News headlines read, "15-Year-Old Kate Jacobs: Was Sexually Assaulted."

Now everyone has something they'd like to say

But sadly, shame and hate are what they send her way.

What's an adult? And what's a child?

She look fuh that. Dem young girls dem only looking for man. Watch she now, crying rape.

I'm so sorry to ask again. But what's a child? And what's an Adult?

I've asked this question multiple times.

Because I'm honestly confused,

how's it that you're able to choose?

When a child's a child and when they're an adult.

Why can you decide when a child is mature enough or not?

And how is it that it always seems to fit your convenience?

It always seems to be for all the wrong reasons.

Hence why I am asking this question again

What's a child? And what's an adult?

For the answers to my questions, I still await

These games that you play are the ones that have no end

Are children adults? Or are adults children?

Or are kids just puppets on a string made for your manipulation and amusement?
