Until you reach age 18 in the US you have very limited civil rights. Freedom of speech, assembly, bearing arms, due process, and privacy are restricted. On the up side for kids, the amusement park tickets are cheaper and the prisons are slightly nicer. And in the US, parents would face criminal charges for things Japanese parents routinely do, like sending their kids to the store alone. Unfortunately the US is filled with plusungood sexcriminals (citation needed) and weapons (price of freedom) so we can’t do it in the land of freedom.

Curfew is a city or county ordinance. Charlotte, NC or Mecklenburg County curfew age was 16 and under when I was growing up. Also the 17 year old age restriction for "R" rated movies is a suggestion. I hope Regal Cinemas as a business continues dying off for changing their policy to be 18+ when I was 17, and then reverting their policy back to 17 when I turned 18. My stepfather would buy a ticket, escort all of us into the theater, walk back out to the ticket box, demand a refund for his ticket, and leave us to watch. Silliest company policy ever.
