and yes.. mental and physical are separate timelines... but nature vs nurture... comes into play too... the hispanic cultures are very cool with their 13 year olds running arount with their boobs hanging out and them hooking up young...
Same in africa...
way back. in ole billy shakespears time...or in ancient greece or rome they were cool with 13 yos...
Victorian england / puritan is where our laws / ethos get a major lineage from...

I've been working since I was 12 and compared to them, I'm a wus...
Now people in their 40s and I have seen 50s are like children...
