To me it’s no different. Whether they’re thirteen or thirty, I’m not obligated to donate time to help them grow. In fact I’d say “student drivers” deserve less of my time — I’m not a free tutor unless I explicitly agreed to such.
That said, I deal with one-off contributors with respect and handhold out of kindness when necessary (assuming they’re not rude). But I don’t feel like explicitly setting the expectation that I will handhold, especially on trivial patches that’ll take me less time on my own.
