    @Buffalox Here in Europe, 18 is generally considered the adulthood age, beyond which you can get a license, you can vote, you can buy property, you have full responsibility of yourself in front of the law etc. - so it would be something along those lines.

    I personally didn’t feel that adult at that age either, though…

      It is interesting looking at adult age through out history. I’m not even a historian. Females have been considered adults as young as 10, and males as young as 12 (just that I’m aware of). On the other extreme males have been considered kids as old as 50 (Romans your dad decided or he died, so I support a 3 year old male may have been an adult. I’m not sure how they treated females other than they were a very sexist society)
