This is an assumption based on a huge generalization.
Because honestly the child has no idea what is going on. A young child knows nothing about sex. It's the adults decision because they are the adults. They know what intimacy is and at least have a better understanding of it. Do you think children know enough to make that decision? I think saying yes to that would be just as bad an assumption.
