SHOULD KIDS BE TREATED LIKE ADULTS

A lot of people find it a challenge to try keep their fast paced schedule with kids, trying to manage their time without the realisation that they no longer have their time and it's now impossible to keep a routine when kids are involved. So why do we see so many examples of parents treating they're kids like adults when a child's brain hasn't developed yet ? Why are kids being put under pressure to grow up quicker because it will make the parents life easier? Is this a sign of a parent showing trust or just delusional parent believing their child is ready for what they're themselves were never ready for.
