The comment is not out of place. In many jurisdictions, a "child" is under 14, while 14-18 is a "young adult" or "adolescent"

I think the UN also counts anyone under 35 as "youth" as well. So there's a lot of statistics-related terminology to deal with here.

You might not be familiar with it but "people under 18" is a long standing propaganda trope.
What Reuters could have said is "Children, defined as people under 18". But they hit the "people under 18" keyphrase.

Reads like one of those "pedophilia is a legitimate sexual orientation" people, who I forget the term for, but do not care to have in my search history.

Yeah, it would feel weird calling a 17 year old a child.

Gotta be specific so the pundits can't make up their own definition.

It's because they want people to mentally subtract "military-age males" from the figures.

People under 18 whom it defines as children
Aside from including your 'meme phrase', I don't see the difference

If you're more than 8-10 years older than that, it absolutely does not feel weird in the slightest.

There needs to be a clear legal standard, and 18 Years is the arbitrary line we agreed on.
When a 17 Year old go to war, they are child soldiers, and when they get bombed/starve, they count towards the children death toll. -

I don't see any debate. Just a definition for clarity since sometimes children are considered younger than other ages.
