| Over the age of 18, people become self-sufficient and self-supporting
and are considered adults. 20-39 is early adulthood, 40-59 is middle
adulthood and 60 & so on is considered late adulthood. Although age
plays an important role in the development of humans, the experiences
and outlook of a person truly define what adulthood is and age doesn't
