"But who decides who's ready and who's not?"

Adolescents live in two worlds. Maybe you don't remember. Some times they are wholy mature in making adult like decisions. At other times they want to be a kid and have someone else taking on the responsibility for good decision making. Individuals are different as are their development stages. "Ready" is not a safe term to turn over to adolescents. The least prepared to handle responsibility are often the first to want to break out of the safe gaurds maintained by the adult establishments. With no standards it becomes a free for all. They are also the first to moan and groan that we didn't take proper care when they have problems. Mature individuals accept responsibility and rarely point the finger at old partners for dogging them and such. The adolescents I've seen who are more the free styling type, tend to have a kagillian complaints about their relations and feel no responsibility for the things that have gone bad.
