People should expect you to be an adult at age 21. Then, at that age, all adult rules should apply to you. I think that being an adult or child should be based on age. Everyone grows and matures at different rates and at different ages. I don’t think people should be considered adults at a set age. I personally think I am more mature and adult that many of the kids I go to school with, but I also know I am not completely developed and mature yet. I believe that age of majority should be based on brain science, and not politics. Becoming an adult is not something that just instantaneously occurs the second you hit a certain age. It is most definitely a process and a maturity issue. I believe that restrictions for different subjects should be lifted at different ages, but in a more logical way. They should happen in a sequence so that the more maturity required, the higher the age at which the privilege is received. Using this method, the transition to adulthood would actually be a transition, not just a title granted at a certain age. I don’t think it’s necessary to define “adulthood.”
