It seems kind of unfair seeing anyone under 18 has no way to decide the future of their country. Which they have more stake on seeing whatever decision happen while they are under 18 will be there for the rest of their life.

Varies though, some areas let children from 12 yo and on participate in local decision-making, whereas others have it tied to when one can legally start working.
Some areas put it pretty late, by about 21-25. I even recall that if you want to run for president in the US, you need to be at least 35 years old. Yet there is no maximum age.
