what is so speciality in 18 age?
Answers
People often wonder why the 18th birthdays are so special. The thing is, there are several milestone birthdays in one’s life. The first period of life, so to call it, includes 5 important events: 5th, 13th, 16th, 18th, and 21st birthday. After these, we start celebrating numbers such as 30, 40, 50, and 60. For some reason, after the 60th birthday, the milestone becomes every 5th year (65, 70, 75).
Now, let’s take a look at important milestone birthdays that precede the famous 18th.
At 5 years old, children start attending kindergarten, which is considered a child’s first year in school. The 5th birthday is a sign of a child growing up, as he or she is ready to attend school and start gaining coherent knowledge about the world.
At 13 years old, children are stepping into the teen period. It’s a crucial period in life, although all parents would agree that it’s the most difficult one to handle at the same time.
At 16 years old, children learn how to drive, and they get their driver’s licenses. At this age, they are close to becoming adults, although people don’t see them that way, nor do they see themselves very much changed.
At 18 years old, children are finally adults! In most countries around the world, you’re officially an adult at this age. That’s one of the reasons why the 18th birthday is so special.
At 21 years old, people are not only officially adults, but they start acting like ones. At 18 years old, most people are still not mentally mature, which changes in the following 3 years. Oh, we almost forgot, you also get to drink alcohol at 21 (in case you wondered why 21st birthday is special for youngsters).
