A young woman at work asked "You guys are adults, can you help me with this?" And that situation needed to be de-escalated.

I teach people in their 20s. The older I get the more I realise how immature I was for so long and how long it takes to get mature. I'm at the point now of considering that the 20s are really just an extension of teenage years.

The prefrontal cortex, the brain region "implicated in executive functions, such as planning, decision making, working memory, personality expression, moderating social behavior and controlling certain aspects of speech and language" matures and develops primarily in adolescence, a process culminating at around the age of 25.

Same. But I'm >50. Yet I pursued my hobbies to the fullest most of each day most of the years since I was a teen. And still do. I never "grew up". That sucks. I enjoy life and still hate having to take sleeping breaks, shopping trips or the other adult shit

Mine seems to be defective at the knee somewhere in the back.

I can't recall how French people count, but I guess it's just something like that.

Me too, but the kids of a friend think I'm cool, so I've got that going for me.

Well, 97 is litterally "four twenties seventeen", soo yeah

For me it changed when I got kids. Before that I was just as young as before. But 7 years of sleep deprivation really helps with feeling too young.

Nah, when I was a teen I was dealing with childhood trauma but didn't realize it til late 20s early 30s. Luckily I was then dealt a whole new unrelated trauma. So teenagehood was like 2 traumas ago.
