Totally agree, Willow. I've always thought the age should be raised to 18, but that should be across the board for everyone and everything. Very similar to accymels thinking, you can't give a child some adult decisions and remove others. 16 is old enough to have a child but not old enough to vote in a Government that best represents their own childs needs. Old enough to marry but to young to buy a drink at their own wedding reception.
