I need a bit of distraction. 
Many assumed that due to the flashiness and how well constructed teen and adult technology is, they are the most technologically advanced age group. Heck, many KND operatives think teens and adults are far superior than them. I however, challenge that notion and say that the kids are the most technologically advanced of them all.
Why?
Even though that they constructed rickety and and often dangerous looking contraptions out of everyday items and salvaged objects, many of them served their purpose and worked extremely well, breaking every law of physics known to to humankind. Then again, the law of physics is written by an adult so kids may have written one of their own.
Take one example of, say, the Moonbase. It's an engineering marvel. Just think just how much energy is needed to power a superstructure on an isolated and dangerous place. Then try to imagine how much energy is needed to support thousands upon thousands of operatives working and playing in the Moonbase. Think how much energy to run their life support unit, air compression, electricity, and armaments. The KND managed to solve all these problems while the adults are struggling to find a solution.
And try to consider all these were made with low tech materials like 2x4 planks and simple polystyrene cups while the adults, even with resources like composite materials and fiber optics couldn't even match the simplicity of the KND's inventions.
