In a limited definition of "people", sure. They NOT little adults, though.

Granted, they tend to be little people, who have a greater attraction to simple sugars, but they're still people. And, I think, generally, from about 13 on, they're kids who should be beginning to be treated as adults. Much too often, though it wasn't really the case in my house, teenagers tend to be given more responsibilities in preparation for adulthood, but parents are pretty stingy on handing out freedoms in return.

They're adults when they take on adult responsabilities. Until then, they are their parents' responsability. I hope this case is overturned on appeal.
