18 Is No Longer an “Adult” – Life Happens
When your 18th birthday comes, it isn’t like someone magically waves a magic wand and you become an adult. Of course—legally—you can do things you couldn’t before: vote, sign contracts—well really a whole range of things without parental consent. But, when we asked 2,000 people across generations when they actually felt like an adult, we got the true answer: 27.
This comes from Life Happens new survey “Adulthood Across Generations,” that was conducted by Talker Research. They surveyed 2,000 Americans equally split among adult Gen Z, Millennials, Gen X and Baby Boomers.
Below are some high-level results, but you can find out a lot more of what the different generations are thinking with our survey research page here and the press release here.
