Researchers Say Adulthood Doesn't Occur Until Your Thirties

Something tells me that that this might only be true for men.

We've all been led to believe that we all become adults when we turn 18. There's not much you can't do other than drink legally. Does that mean your an adult at 21? According to research we have grown up with a flawed idea of what adulthood really is. Some researchers don't think that full adulthood occurs in our mid to late thirties.

According to The Independent, neuroscientists from The University of Cambridge believe that our brains go through serious mental developments in our mid twenties. Habits and new behaviors can occur in that time like mental disorders and addictions.

What do you think? If our brain isn't fully developed our we really adults? Are we even ourselves?
