Make 21 the age of majority and adulthood

We are putting too much stress on teenagers to be adults and it's very damaging to their self esteem, putting the age of majority at 18 only scares teenagers, which can cause deep psychological harm continuing as feelings of being abandoned. 18-20yr olds are teenagers and are most likely to drink irresponsibly and make life choices very much influenced by the media or peers. The reality is that 18yr olds are not mentally, emotionally or even physically mature enough to be adults and still look, feel and act like they at 15, 16 or 17. 18yr old teenagers are not as capable of crimes like adults are. The truth is that 18yr olds aren't ready to move out and start a life of their own, some do but that's only a small number, they often have a shallow understanding of politics, money and jobs
