at what age should someone be considered an adult?
this may be a stupid question to some but at what age do you think someone should be considered an adult? i know that the legal age is 18 but in your personal opinion do you think it should be a higher age or maybe lower? just curious. i recently read a manga that made me think about if 18 should really be the age when someone is called an adult. never thought about it till now tbh. (when someone has life experience or when their brain stops developing should they be considered an adult? or 18)
This may sound stupid but, I don't get why boys and girls have different legal ages. I mean why not just make it the same age? Like it's both 19 for boys and girls or something.

I searched up when averagely does a person’s brain stop developing, and honestly 25 seems like a very good age to start considering someone an adult.

Also people averagely get married when they’re 25...... reply
idk i remember reading somewhere that the age a human brain takes to be fully developed is actually 25 so i think the legal should only be slightly lower than that reply
maybe like 21? 18 is like the pre-adult stage ig. i find it hard to pinpoint an age where everybody should be recognized as an adult tho. i think at 18 people dont have enough life experience and arent really grown yet. 1 reply
