It depends on what you understand maturity to be.

For me it isn't owning a house or being financially independent or even if I had kids. It's about me being able to recognize that some situations really don't warrant responses or reactions, it's realising that mean-kid high-school stuff should be left in high-school. It's understanding that hey, some people are just not going to click with me or like me and so long as they're not shitty to my face I really don't care. It really is a lot of not being bothered by things that would have bothered me at 16, but at 30 none of them are actually a big deal.

I've met teens that can grasp the above and adults who can't, so age is not an indicator of maturity as such as I've met 40 year olds who still act like high-school bullies, but on average? I do expect more from adults than I do teens, because as adults we are meant to be able to handle life that bit easier, we've been around longer.

We all have to exist together and none of us should be expected to be babysitters for other adults, especially if they refuse to grow up.

I think it definitely involves a lot of self-awareness and awareness of others. That part still kicks my ass sometimes.

maturity isn't having a mortgage and a pension, it's how you deal with the world and yourself. well said, nonny. especially when being in fandom in any sense leaves you babysitting adults way too often.
