If all ages are influenced by misinformation, should there be any age limits on voting?

Should the voting age be lowered to 16?
I think the voting age should not be lowered to 16 as they’re minds are fresh and younger than an 18-year old’s mind. 16-year old’s can be easily manipulated as they are still teen agers and won’t understand a lot of stuff. Sixteen-year-olds spend their money on useless stuff not knowing the value of money so they’re brains are still adapting to the world around them which can take up to 3 years.
Secondly 16-year-olds can make a mistake while voting and it can end up confusing. Voting can also be complicated for sixteen-year old’s, But some may argue 16-year-old’s are old enough to understand and start voting for political parties, but they are wrong as they are not familiar with voting.
