Do you think age defines maturity?

I dont think it does and it really makes me mad when somebody stops talking to me because they find out im so young :|

On certain subjects-yes. Age defines maturity, or experience rather. That is not to say you aren't highly intelligent or capable of understanding.

There are two kinds of people. Readers and Writers. Readers have experience through the views of writers. Writers have the experience and live to tell it to readers. They are symbiotic.

@PartTimeModel: i was just thinking about "experience" and "experiences" - example, a syrian child refugee may have terrible experiences, but not have the experience to understand them.

@Yulianna: That is a good example. A child grows up, processes, learns and gains strength and knowledge from experiences, however horrific. Then one becomes experienced.

No not when I've seen older people here act like 5 yr olds and younger people blow me away with how switched on they are at times.

no! for sure! i was more mature when i was 12 years than i am now!
It makes me sad when a young person assumes that my being older means I have nothing more to contribute to the world. And I have been told as much. I've become cautious engaging in conversations with younger people whom I don't know, because of such experiences.
@Yulianna: I consider you a friend. 🤗

Ah but when someone gives me a degrading nickname or won't listen to me because of my age yeah. not everyone wants to learn what you specifically have to give and some would rather learn from their mistakes rather than prevent themselves from making any in the first place...ugh
