Summary Introduction

Concept introduction

The definition of adulthood is the time when a person has finished school, has a full-time job, can support a family, no longer lives with parents, and marrying. People reach this level at different ages. As many of these benchmarks are related to financial stability, one's social class can affect when they are achieved.
