That's not right. You don't have to be an adult to have freedom of speech. However, there are places where you give up some freedoms, in theory to protect others.
Also, remember, in the US, the First Ammendment only covers what laws can be passed. Freedom of Speech is not guaranteed by the Constitution, only that the government can't create laws to take it away.
