You're very welcome, Jack!

The temporary solution, perhaps for a generation or two, that I promote to allow for youth rights in today's day and age is the Epstein-Dumas Test of Adulthood co-designed and promoted by youth libber Dr. Robert Epstein, which he describes in detail on his website (just Google it!) and in his groundbreaking book Teen 2.0, the 2010 update to his 2007 tome The Case Against Adolescence. Highly recommended!

The Epstein-Dumas Test of Adulthood allows youths under the age of majority the opportunity to achieve emancipation by proving via a specially designed and reasonable test that they are competent enough to handle certain or all decision-making by comparing their scores to those provided by a large number of adults who took the test for the purpose of collecting comparative data. This, I think, is the best idea I've heard so far for a reasonable and objective way of determining individual merit in young people, even if not ideal, that also compromises with society by taking common concerns, whether warranted or not, into consideration.

The reason I do not personally support the idea of guardian approval is because I would not trust parents, step parents, or any other guardian with such a close emotional relationship, and such direct power and authority, to be willing and/or capable of making truly objective decisions for their children. Many of them would likely make decisions, I believe, based on their personal moral, religious, or political ideologies, and not truly based on their children's actual merits. I realize a community board consisting of both specially trained adults and emancipated youths wouldn't be perfect, but I think they would be more capable of putting emotions aside and being objective then regular caregivers like parents, who may try to prevent their children from taking the test in the first place in some cases. I think the presence of emancipated youths on such evaluation boards would make it much less likely that the decisions would be hampered by adult evaluators with anti-youth biases and agendas.
