1.) 23

2.) Neither. See 3.

3/4) I don't believe in separating adult/child based on age or a single experience. I think once people can communicate with others and can look after themselves in terms of basic needs, they become physically independent. For example, by the time I was six I knew how to buy food from the market, how to prepare and cook my own meals from scratch, how to do laundry by hand, how to do basic home cleaning tasks, how to read and write and how to use a dictionary to look up the words I didn't know. Yes I was financially dependent on my parents but I wasn't dependent on them to look after myself. So if they were to be in an accident and couldn't be able to physically care for me anymore, I wouldn't die.

Did that mean by the time I was six, I no longer needed my parents? No! I still relied on them for lots of things like money and guidance and hugs on bad days. I think of things like social skills, financial independence and physical independence as skill sets. People with really low social skills can be financially and physically independent. People with great social skills can be financially independent on someone else, and people who are financially independent can be physically dependent on others. Plus, skills sets can be upgraded. There're always things to learn, new ideas to explore.

I don't give a damn if you still live with your parents or are a stay-at-home mom or aren't great at small talk. I don't care what sex you are or what race you are. It doesn't matter if you are five or fifty. You are a person. I will be polite to you.
