I read an article today saying adolescence actually lasts until the age of 32. 😯In my generation they said the full age of maturity was 22. Then for

a while they said the brain doesn't mature til age 25. Now they claim you're pretty much a kid til 32. Ridiculous. How far are they going to push the age of adulthood? Although in my opinion a lot of people act like 2 year olds must less adolescents.

In Jewish and Islamic culture, they become adults at 13.

@NativePortlander1970 Oh a 13 year old is definitely a child.

@Cloud7593 Not in their cultures

@NativePortlander1970 Mentally they are a child anyway

@Cloud7593 I surmise that You have not been around any Jewish or Islamic families, they raise their children very differently to be more mature for their age, they take being an adult at 13 very seriously. I have been around many Jewish and Islamic families in Portland, in Delaware, Reno, and in Las Vegas.
