There are plenty of valid reasons to provide rules for kids, not the least of which is their own safety. Statistics show kids harm themselves and get harmed more after dark than before. Just like it's against the law for 16-18 year old kids to drive with more than ~2 people in the car, stats show they are exponentially more likely to harm themselves and others when they are driving with more than 2 in the car, consequently, for the better of everyone, they can't do that.
