In my psychology class today we were talking about Adolescence and how it seems to be lengthening. How do you define someone as an adult? By the legal definition, when they are living on there own? I have met a 6 year old who are more adult then their parents. I have met people in there 30s who still live at home and never plan to move out. I think we need to reclassify the definition of an adult.
