I remember doing that exact thing as a child. Well, teenager, but that's still a child. I had a driver's license. I had money from my part time job and/or allowance. I had access to a vehicle.

If I wanted a burger, I could just go get one. I rarely did unless I was out during a mealtime, because I had good food at home and didn't want to spend money. But that's the same decision I make as an adult.

Not to be pedantic, but make up your mind here. A child is physically unable to drive nor do anything that requires complex thought. A teenager is not a child, both by definition and by physical aspect. This is essentially ageism, by infantilizing teenagers, including your past self. Especially, since you're correlating adulthood to that particular time period later on.
