With regard to teenagers weaponizing the whole 'literal children's business, I have news - they ARE literal children and some of them have NOT yet developed far enough to 'know better.' The thing to remember is that it doesn't free them from repercussions, the same way it doesn't mean an 8 year old's tantrum won't go unheeded by their parents (one would hope). You can still put them in their place, and you SHOULD. I don't know why the internet has magically forgotten How It Was Before, but if teenagers got online and acted up before social media came along, grown adults never hesitated to put them in their place - if you want to interact in adult spaces, you'll be treated as one (within reason, obviously). "I'm a literal child." Okay, then log off and get your mommy over here to look at what you're posting, because you obviously can't be here unsupervised. That's it. That's your response. You don't have to accept bullying from 'literal children' whose brains have not fully developed, and you certainly aren't their parents and responsible for keeping them from getting their feelings hurt. Don't bully them in return, but you're the adult - give them the unvarnished reality of the situation and move on.
