At what age do you consider someone an adult?

[(Anonymous)]

Not legally. What age does someone have to be for you to say "yeah, that's an adult"?

Re: At what age do you consider someone an adult?

[(Anonymous)]

It varies. But I'd say you are an adult around 15.

Typo up mean in medieval Europe?

Re: At what age do you consider someone an adult?

So you don't even need to hit puberty before you are an adult? Interesting!

Re: At what age do you consider someone an adult?

[(Anonymous)]

No. Just no.

Re: At what age do you consider someone an adult?

[(Anonymous)]

Nothing, it has everything to do with mental maturity.

There are plenty of 50 year old babies out there.

Re: At what age do you consider someone an adult?

[(Anonymous)]

I know 30 year olds I don't consider adults. Being an adult is purely based on actions and responsibilities imo.

Re: At what age do you consider someone an adult?

See, that just gives people an excuse to do shitty things. A 30 year old who throws tantrums is still an adult. Just an adult who throws tantrums.

Re: At what age do you consider someone an adult?

As in hold them to adult standards or expect them to behave like adults? 18 and about 20-25, respectively. Basically, first year out of school, whenever that may be. Or in graduate studies.

Once they're 18 things like *the law* judge them by adult standards, so me being exasperated by them not knowing how to cook is fairly minor. Hopefully I can help them realize they're adults before they do something stupid (like assume ramen noodles count as a meal and end up in the hospital with malnutrition despite their 'three meals a day'), but even if not it does them no good to be coddled.

I don't think I ever thought about it! Responsibilities I guess.

Like, my brother is 30, debt-ridden, semi-unemployed, and lives in my parents' house playing computer games rent-free. He is barely an adult.

Re: At what age do you consider someone an adult?

[forgottenjester]

When they act like one.

Re: At what age do you consider someone an adult?

[caerbannog]

I guess I would stop giving them slack at around 22-23? Barring exceptional circumstances.

21.

Definitely not 18, you're still a damn teenager then. 20 would be a better age of majority, but 21 gives them one more grace year. It's also lines up better with the end of college life, so kids who go on to higher education and are still in "student mode" get to the point where they typically have more responsibilities, live in an apartment with more of a sense of rent, bills, utilities, etc rather than a student dorm, etc.

I mean granted, I'm 26 and don't always feel like an "adult". But 21 is a good dividing age, I think.
