    Sure. That might end up being a socially healthy place for adults to end up.

    But it will never work that way for young teens. Their brains aren’t done baking yet. They don’t have the emotional maturity to understand that enough to be “okay with it because it’s just a fake”.

    That’s why we protect kids rather than just telling them “hey it’s okay…it’s only a fake.”
