Maturity =/= age.

"Blah blah I was more mature at 14 than soooooooooooooo many 40-year-olds I know whine whine."

There may not be a direct causation between age and maturity, but anyone who can't see a correlation between the two doesn't have two brain cells to rub together.

And I also agree with you little mousey! I'm tired of earing all these tweenies claim that they're sooooo mature for their age. I help out on a yaoi guild on an all ages board and we're constantly plagued by these "sooooo mature" young fans who flap around and squee. Uh huh. Sure.

While people tend to link maturity with acting above one's age range, it's also about having proper knowledge to carefully consider something. Just being laid back or not so squeey as everyone else doesn't make one mature. You need an awareness of the world and it's workings. Some 50 year olds don't have it while some well traveled teens might, but your average teen just doesn't. They all like to think they're special and mature and could properly handle a Death Note. Sorry kiddies, that thought alone just shows how much of a kid you still are.

From what my own experience, so much of maturity comes from holding down a job, paying bills - accepting that there are consequences for one's actions (spending one's paycheck on juicy couture before one's electric bill = no electricity), and really ... experiencing a little bit of adversity.

That's one of the reasons why I think the peace corps (or even americorps) is a good thing for the "poor little rich kids" after they get out of college - being placed in a situation where poverty is real and Mommy and Daddy can't pay to fix everything is a character-building experience.

Me? I'm 21 and still not a grownup. Won't be til I've spent some time in the real world, which college most assuredly is not. (Assuming the in-at-18-out-at-22-parents-paying-for-everything-trust-fundy plan, rather than working one's own way through it. I'm in the middle of that road with more student loans than I can afford and that I'm totally not thinking about right now. >_< )


(I can only hope that, at 16, I would have known well enough to burn the damn thing after I figured out that, whoa, the Death Note is real.)

"Blah blah I was more mature at 14 than soooooooooooooo many 40-year-olds I know whine whine."
Come now, that's not what I said, and tacking insults onto the end of an otherwise reasonable sentence is only shooting yourself in the foot.

Re: 45. (Not OP.)

But it is a common argument of people who like to point out that age =/= maturity. A lot of young people bring it up. While it's a good point, it's also flawed.

Re: 45. (Not OP.)

(Anonymous) 2008-03-13 01:25 am (UTC)(link)
True, but it's always best to try and be polite and reasonable with people. Insults do not an interesting discussion provoke.

(Feel free to point out that I'm being foolishly optimistic to hope for such a thing here.)

Ok *coughs* Welcome to the Internet! It's SRS FN BSNS!

Anyway, yeah, fandom secrets. Not exactly the home of intellectual conversation. There's some lurking, but for the most part it's wank, wank, and more wank!
