怎样定义一个真正的成年人?很多人会直接把成年和年龄相挂钩。当你和有着不同文化背景的人来讨论这个话题的时候,你会发现这种分类方式是有明显错误的。当你问其中的每一个人,一个未成年的人到成年人的转折点是几岁,他们的回答总是不同的。为什么?因为他们的回答都是基于自己主观的看法。成年的界定并不是看年龄,而是看心智的成熟。

How can one classify a true adult? Many people directly attribute age to adulthood. The problem with this methodology becomes evident when you discuss the topic with various people of different cultural backgrounds. If you ask each of them what age they believe constitutes the point at which a person progresses from childhood into adulthood, their answers will always be different. Why? Because every one of the answers are based on subjective opinion. Adulthood is not based age; it’s based strictly on emotional maturity.
