Not defending the guy but…I think you underestimate 12 yrs olds, at least in general.
 
I dont know what happen to the 12 yr olds in your part of the world but here they’re capable of running a shop while playing games in their phone, while Ma or Da is inside watching a show or reading news. Little buggers even watch porn, masturbate and swear like adults.
 
That’s why I don’t question the plausibility of Harry Potter doing all that adventures in the first book, or Ash in Pokemon or Naruto before the timeskip, because well, kids in my part of the world be like that.
 
If them little twerps can ride a motorbike three times their size, they’re responsible for shit they pull. Not knowing what’s going on? If you’ve lived life for 12 yrs and still dont know what’s going on, then start questioning why your parents dont let you know.
 
This DOES NOT excuse the behaviors of predators because they’re manipulators and they prey on the weak and vulnerable. Many girls below 15 go the prostitution route for money where I was from. Inexcusable actions on the part of the pimps, really.

Being alone, watching porn and masturbating is completely different to actually having sex with another person.  
As is running a shop. Or riding a motorbike.
 
Even small children tend to explore and play with their genitals, that doesn’t mean they understand what is actually going on.
 
As for motorcycles, I really want to see a 12 year old ride a full size bike weighing 150+kg, if he can even touch his feet to the ground while sitting on it, the weight of such a thing is not easy to balance while standing still and especially hard when driving slowly.

And I agree, BUT, I would chalk it up to parents not teaching them, than their actual capability to understand. Don’t you think a 12, 13 14 yrs old would understand sexual intercourse? We teach them algebra, history, language, sports, science, programming–things which require some form of abstraction–and a lot of them handle it very well. Compared to those, sex shouldn’t even be difficult to comprehend.
 
Regardless of what our views of children are, we agree that people who exploit minors for sex are criminals.

Well our schools have to teach sex ed in grade 4 and it is even illegal (as ruled by european court of human rights) for parents to make their children not go for religious reasons.
 
Of course they can understand the reasons behind sex and all that but I don’t think they can truly understand the implications and consequences of such actions, which makes them susceptible to manipulation etc by adults.

I really don’t like/get it when anyone says “people still play/listen to/watch/do X?” as if it’s some bizarre crazy thing that someone enjoys or does a thing that’s perceived as old or bad or something!
 
Like who cares.
