Coming from someone who lives in their own imagination most of the time, I feel a bit of pity for you; yet at the same time I am extremely jealous of your ability to reason with reality. For an anti-aphantasiac, the obsession was mostly short-lived in the beginning stages of puberty. There's still plenty to do and obsess about as a pubescent child. My run-ins and conversations with teenage boys and girls are still quite normal, considering they have such an immense resource to gather these tidbits from - they conduct themselves quite normally and with poise. Perhaps there's a line drawn at obsessing for hours over something similar to the topic in question, but as far as I know the majority of partakers use it for what it is - and move on, similar to pre-internet sources. Regarding children, you may have a good point, but consider when you think is a good time to start talking; because in my experience the kids already know well enough about the topic through word-of-mouth, even before puberty starts to take hold of hormones.
