    I think someone becomes adult when you get the keys to your first car or when you take your first job and may be when you finally leave your parent’s home.

    Becoming an Adult is an individual thing and may differ greatly......i still behave childishly sometimes......however Adultery as an issue is a hot debate among young couples.....most of them indulge in this :eek:

    Different countries will give you different answers haha in Australia my answer would be 18, America the answer is typically 21. But from my experience with people of this age i think people finally act like mature adults at the age of 23. They begin to prioritize themselves and plan for the future.

    Not at all, age is not the matter as well. When you are able to take decision your own. You are an adult.
    Thanks !

    You become an adult when you begin letting girls know what you really feel.

    I say around 21 years of age is when someone usually matures enough to be considered an adult.

    I think someone becomes an adult once they are capable of (and put into practice) supporting themselves and thinking independently, as well as a certain measure of self-control over how they act and present themselves to others.

    I don't believe adulthood is a switch that just gets turned on one day, but a gradual progression.

    When a person is able to decide correctly what he needs and which is good and bad.. and also able to correct himself or warn himself when he going to do a wrong or bad thing.
