It’s about perspective, I think. A 19-year-old is technically a young adult, but is a “grown up” to a small child and a kid to an older adult. I feel like that 18-early 20s-ish range is some weird gray area that seriously depends on maturity level. I’ve met some very wise people in that age range who are far more adult than literal adults I’ve known, but I’ve also met some very, very immature straight-up children in that age range as well.
Then again, maybe that’s all ages? Hmm…
Editing to add: This is my first comment on here. I can see myself settling in and getting comfortable in this new space. I’m happy to have possibly found a new home. I’ll miss rif though.
