Becoming Adult

First I don't think teenager became an adult at 15. I think it's depend on their culture. In some country's culture it could be 18, 20, or 13. I think it's not a matter that they are old or young. Only their culture makes them to prepare or think more about adult and their future. I also think it is better to be adult earlier. When we become adult earlier, we can think like a adult not a child and also our willpower is more powerful. We can handle more hard thing that we can't before.  Adult is not a  just word. It means we are changed and we have responsibility to our behavior. 

Actualy in Korea there is no special event like a Quinceanera. We just count our age and if we are 19 or 20 age we were adult by law. But it has no meaning. Maybe we can drink and smoke in legal but it is not a significant change. We still received parent's support. I don't knos when the girl became an adult, but I think boys became an adult when he are discharged from military service. I want we become adult more quickly.

  1. Do you want to serve your conviction as fas as you can?
    Anyway, I agreed your view that being regared an adult is depends on their culture. But, I think kids and teenagers need time to be mature in mental sides.

  2. I thought that events are meaningful to some countries.
    But after I read your writing it can be right that teenagers can do illegal things before 20.
