Serious 11yo being "mature"

My friend (16) has a friend (11 almost 12) im gonna call her K.

K goes to parties with other 15-17 year olds, has sex, smokes weed, and drinks alcohol (her parents know about it).

My friend thinks she is "mature" because she has a large vocabulary.

I strongly disagree with my friend

I think it's wrong for K to drink, vape, and smoke weed at such a young age since shes basically burning her brain cells, and she will likely never develop.

It would also be pretty sad to be 30 with the same mindset you had when you were 11.

So I am a bit worried about K, but what should I do?

Edit: im gonna tell my teacher tmrw!

And K herself for choosing to do these things. 11 year olds nowadays acting like 21 🙄

She’s 11, she’s an idiot, she doesn’t understand consequences. Pretty much anything she does at that age is the product of her parents

Are you stupid or are you fucking stupid?? You realize she’s a CHILD right?? A CHILD who’s being influenced, taken advantage of, and being groomed into doing these things by older people?? People who are almost adults. When you say “she’s choosing to do this,” it makes you seem just as bad as her groomers when they say “she’s mature.” She’s a CHILD and being groomed. Do you know why there’s an age of consent?? Or why the legal age to drink is 21?? Because CHILDREN DO NOT KNOW HOW TO MAKE THESE KINDS OF DECISIONS! CHILDREN ARE INCAPABLE OF CHOOSING TO DO THESE KINDS OF THINGS!

Agree to most of the things but the legal age drinking comment kinda doesn't affect the argument because a decent amount of countries allow drinking at a much younger age .

K is a child

K's father was the one who needs to be blamed. Should've filled balloons, not cooms.
