I've heard that a man isn't really an adult until he experiences the death of his own parents... perhaps the birth of his children.

Marriage and academics don't seem to hold as much value these days. Easily obtainable and often disposable.

*cue Lion King's "Circle of Life" tune*

Environmental hardship and life experience create more mature individuals.

Good OP. I ask myself these things all the time.

I wonder, "Is this what it is to be an adult?"

I get the feeling we all lead double lives.
