    Default How old is an adult

    How old is an adult??
    The reason I ask this, I took the nephew to a car show last weekend.
    Prices were as follows
    Adults $10
    Children under 13 free
    Now the money has nothing to do with it, but when did a 13 year old become an adult??
    In my opion he's still a kid, so why should he pay full price??
    There was no half price at all? Who makes these rules
    Can we challange them??
    B T W we had a great day, and the money some of these people spend on cars is awesome

    G'day,

    For my 2¢ at 18 you're still immature, 21 and you're getting a bit wiser but still need some growing up to do. Sound like an old phart don't I?

    I'll agree with Stuart and say 25. I'll also go with Grunt and say that no matter how wrinkly we are there's always the kid in us that wants to go roaring down the footpath on a Cyclops etc.
    I make things, I just take a long time.

    In the Old Testament in the Bible a Male Jew wasn't considered an adult until the age of thirty.

    Im never gonna be a dult! NEVER EVER... SO THERE!!!

    You know sometimes I think we as "older youth" get carried away with our own importance and our lives become so fixated with the serious stuff that we forget to smile laugh and just RELAX... Theres a time to be serious for sure but even then in the light of the most serious of things one can still find things to smile about... trouble is us "older youth" tend to think its childish being foolish carrying on like a kid... but really is that soo bad?

    Serious has its place... but to keep yourself "adjusted" try smiling being a galah in public and just generally enjoying yourself we save our serious sides for when the kids are abed and snoring then we discuss the serious stuff of life... enjoy life its the only buggar we get why waste the whole thing being serious gruff and mucho? Waste of a life in my book!
    Believe me there IS life beyond marriage!!! Relax breathe and smile learn to laugh again from the heart so it reaches the eyes!!

    Like they say, growing old is compulsary but growing up or not is by choice.
