That's the definition of adult, in my opinion: To be able to evaluate and bear the consequences of your actions, be it positive or negative.
So how do you test whether somebody is an adult or not? Because most places just look at your age, and we all know that being 18 doesn't make you an adult.
We've decided that there's a point, usually 18 years old, when adulthood begins. That's of course a somewhat arbitrary number, but you I see no alternative that is significantly better and still practical. If people are no adults when they turn 18, bad luck for them. I have no use for 25 year old children. They are a disgrace.
Yeah, that's how I used to think when my kids were younger, too.
