This is quite a good write-up about the pros and cons. As a father of a one year old, of course it doesn't make sense she could vote anything. But with the age of 10 (when some kind of middle school starts in most (western?) countries), pupils can and should start to get politically informed. I support all these pro arguments. It would make our democracies richer and more robust in the long term.
But it won't come: Conservative parties and powerful old people don't want this, they feel it as a threat.
