at what point did you realise that you were now an adult?

or in other words when did you realise okay, I'm not a kid anymore

my one (it sounds strange), but my one is when I got a complete understanding and interest in current events

I say it's strange because as a kid, the first forum I ever used was.. you guessed it, a kids current events one- but I didn't have as much understanding back then as I do now, and now I wonder why did I spend 2 years on a forum I didn't understand. lol

When I was 18 and had to move out on my own. My mother was just done after that. We were fighting all of the time and one day she said that it was time for me to get out on my own. She waited until my brother was 23 to make him move out and that was because he was in college.

When I got my first full-time corporate job. That's when I realized how much life sucks!

Maybe you stayed around that forum to learn something? Maybe some things that you had missed out on in school or at home?

For me, it was when I had my first child. I had my first child at 17 nearly 18 and it was after that it hit me that I am an adult now and I have bigger responsibilities. My first child is now 19 and I am proud of the man he is turning out to be it has taught me a lot.

I had a pregnant GF when I was a senior in high school. That summer after I graduated I had my own place and a full time job.... So... age 18.

To be honest, I'm still not sure I've hit that moment 100% yet. I'm almost 30 and still don't want to grow up.
