        I’m terribly sorry, I didn’t know that being allowed to smoke and being able to gather knowledge and learn what’s going on around someone go hand in hand.

      Legally no it is not. Legally you cannot marry (Even with parental support). Cannot sign a contract. Cannot smoke or drink. And cannot consent to sex.

      Seems pretty shitty for the legal system to assign all the responsibilities on a 15 year old because she should know what is going on. But zero rights because she is not old enough to make her own choices.
