That's rationalizing ATR. Manipulating children is obviously a no-brainer, because you know better than them. However manipulating adults is pretty low because you are not conducting yourself honestly and insulting their intelligence. You must know the feeling of realizing someone was constantly manipulating you, who you thought was a really good friend. It's a pretty terrible feeling. It shows a complete lack of respect.
