Because they don't need to be vaccinated unless their parents choose to get them the vaccine (under 18) or they choose themselves (over 18)

For sure, which is why it's being emphasized to them that they're not getting vaccinated just for them but for others.

I'm a young guy in my early 20s. I'm not going to need the vaccine to protect myself, I got vaccinated to protect others. That's the same for most young people I know who got vaccinated. I've never been in danger of the pandemic but I recognize we all get old some time and I'd like young people then to do the same for me.
