Actually, it is by making a rule that you deprive kids of the opportunity to
make decisions.  Whether or not kids can make decisions depends a great deal
on the quality of parenting, and how well parents guide those decisions.  By
making an arbitrary rule, parents are denied the right to allow their
children to make responsible decisions, within a framework set by the
parents.
