an exemption from a child labor prohibition doesn't equal consent
the Department of Labor has an exemption for children working in their parents business because that's the only way they could get the prohibitions passed, since children cannot speak for themselves on the matter after recognizing that children can't legally consent to anything which is why there are prohibitions on the matter.
what you are writing is a wild distortion of the concept of consent, that many people consider dangerous to harbor.
there is legal consent restrictions (ie. even if someone says okay, its not valid), as well as societal consent recognitions such as when power dynamics are not in someone's favor and some extremes of that we don't allow to happen.
even for things they are allowed to do autonomously, there are age restrictions on that.
I'm not sure what resource to share on understanding the topic of consent and mapping that to daily interactions that are seen as normal but shouldn't be. I can see the need for it.
