usually because they just haven't read/seen much of it since high school and what they have they didn't like

I am twenty-nine years old and I have seen and read plenty of adult media since high school and liked plenty of it too. Come on. I'm not referring to just a bunch of stuff I read in high school English class.

(I also don't like The Hunger Games. There are so, so many dystopian books that are better than that in the YA field.)

Yes you do come across sort of elitist? I mean I just don't choose which media to check out based on the targeted age range? I don't see why that's difficult to understand or why it baffles you so much.

Well I think the whole issue is that both sides are painting both things with broad strokes, because both things have a lot of material behind them and it's not quite clear what the argument actually is.

I don't really feel up to providing a bunch of lengthy examples and meta, but if you look around there's a lot of essays on how well specific pieces of children's media have handled adult themes.

I don't think anyone here is saying children's media is superior. In fact, no one has. They're saying some children's media is superior and some of it handles adult themes in really fantastic ways, and to be frank I think it's a bit silly to assume that wouldn't be the case.
