I don't agree with that interpretation. In many years of testing
websites built for a younger audience, older teens never complained or
felt limited. During qualitative questioning later, we would ask older
teens if they were bothered by child-friendly controls, simpler
language or larger type. The comments we received surprised us. Almost
all of them said something to the effect of, "No, I just surfed
faster."
