Get the Schrodinger's Jk mug.A Minor, usually between the ages of 16 and 17, that uses it as an excuse for their behaviour, claiming that their age makes it so they shouldn't face any consequence for their actions, but still expect you to both respect their opinion (you can't disagree with them because they're a minor and they don't know any better) while also not treat them like a child (they're a minor but they're very mature and their opinion is important, even if the matter at hand is 18+ which they shouldn't be interacting with in the first place) but due to their age (16-17) they do, indeed, know better, most people who act like this will change their trick once they're 18 by claming your opinion doesn't matter because you're older than them, this never seems to end well however.
Minor(17): KILL YOURSELF
NotMinor(18): I don't think you should say that
Minor(17): WHAT???? IM LITERALLY A MINOR DO NOT SPEAK WITH ME YOU PEDOPHILE
In this case the minor showcases an example of Schrodinger's Minor, they do not take any responsibility for what they said and instead attack the person who replied to them claiming that they're a minor and they shouldn't interact with them.
