There's a vast and important difference between growing up emotionally--in terms of taking responsibility, controlling emotions, deferring gratification, behaving altruistically--and growing up in the shallow, materialistic, sex-obsessed manner described in this article. The first kind of maturation is one we have lost among young kids in our society, and it is a good thing. The second kind is the destructive sexualized type of maturity our society encourages. Surely you cannot think that is a good thing?
