Can anyone provide any actual evidence that says this kind of thing makes children's lives worse? I was pretty uncensored as a kid and I'm honestly really grateful for it, i feel like it helped me adjust to the adult world well before my peers.

Honestly the things that got to me as a kid more than anything else was violence and the news. I recognized stuff like family guy to be fake and silly, but seeing and hearing about people getting killed or severely hurt in media and the news was sometimes traumatizing.

Nobody said it makes a child's life worse. They're not even talking about that.

It's about kids being in places made for adults.

Like bringing a kid to a bar.

Do the tickets to these events say that they're adult only?

Like, a concert ticket in the alcohol section (which is only because they can't be served) will specifically prohibit under-21s. I guess I'm just curious why an event would "exclude children" without going so far as to actually exclude them.
