Being_an_Adult

Being an Adult While I was reading a news paper article “Adult doesn’t just happen” by Peter Goddard, a sentence “Becoming an adult is an act of will” attracted my attention by it’s deep and obstruct meaning. What does it mean to become an adult' And when does this usually happen' There are many issues that could be brought up and discussed when asked this question. I think that there is no specific period of time or age when teens become adults. It’s possible to become an adult in any time of life, because it’s doesn’t depend on your age, it depends on your “self-creation” and “self-realization”. Speaking in terms of adulthood, I want to add two more very important aspects which are also required in order to become an adult: responsibility and self-independence. I have my own definition of being an adult. It states that ones you become totally independent from your parents, moreover become their caretaker; once you realize that you, and only you, are responsible for your own life (and maybe life of others), then you can consider yourself matured, not only physically, but psychologically and financially.
