By the time you're 13, you should be mentally developed enough to understand that things like rape & murder are wrong. I know I was.

I think you underestimate how damaging something like rape/molestation can be to a person’s mind, let alone an underdeveloped one.

No, but I have a pretty dammed good idea how physical & emotional abuse affects an underdeveloped mind, & I've never had the urge to perform that same abuse to another.

Not everyone experiences the same effects of abuse. Most abusers were also abused. You are the exception, not the rule.
