Schools banning math didn't make kids smarter. Same logic applies here—actual education beats prohibition.

Brains are still developing. One study isn't enough but neither is ignoring the risk entirely.

Teaching critical thinking around AI is way smarter than a blanket ban. Kids should learn *how* it works, not hide from it.

Under 14? Come on. Most of them are already using it on their phones. Ban it and you just push it underground.

There's a difference between *using* AI responsibly and letting algorithms raise your kid. Protection at that age isn't weak—it's parenting.

Banning it just delays the inevitable. Kids need digital literacy now, not a sheltered ignorance they'll regret.
