Age to drive: 16? Still a teenager
Age of consent: varies by state but is generally around 15 or so.
Smoke: gross. But I never heard of a teenager having much problems acquiring tobacco, alcohol, or weed.
Kids in my daughter’s middle school were vaping. According to my daughter, a kid’s mom was selling vapes through them to kids in the school. There will always be a market to sell kids contraband and plenty of kids will be happy to pay a premium for it regardless of what their parents say.
But in this case, with gender affirming care, it’s generally a case where the parents also want the child to have that care. It’s being denied despite what the parents, the child, and even their doctor wants.
You were never a teenager, were you?

What kind of question is that?
A rhetorical one. I am guessing most people understood that.
