It's also an awesome skill to be developing at that age, not just the cooking itself but all of the downstream skills that cooking teaches.

So am I just wasting my time peeling ginger or what?

It depends. Barbara Tropp used to say that she doesn't peel at home, only for the restaurant, but I usually do. That's partly because I sometimes eat the ginger in the finished dish, and partly because some parts of ginger skin can be pretty gnarly and hard to clean thoroughly.
