As children, most of what we learned and Know is taught to us by our parents. They are the ones closest to us. they are molding our mind and our behaviors based on how they want us to turn out as adults. The things we know and learn about politics are taught to us by our parents. The opinions we are exposed to most are theirs, which absolutely will influence our thoughts. Changing the voting age to 13 would not create a true portrayal of One's Own thoughts or beliefs. Children aren't mentally mature enough to make such an important decision because our understanding of democratic processes aren't extensive enough to make an informed decision that would be in the best interest of our country.
