Journal - Families in Daily Life

In my Sociology class n proto(prenominal) mating and the Family, we talked about whether they considered themselves as adult, if we model so, why they think about that. About two-third of student answered they were non sure if they were adult or non because they thought they did non get married yet, not have kid yet, and the principal(prenominal) thing was they were supported by their parents financially. However, they think themselves as adults on the some other side, such as determining how to live their lives by themselves and having a driving license. ilk them, the period of adult is not clear.
