520 | _a"Thirty years ago...the median age for an American woman to get married was 21. She had her first child at 22. Now it all takes longer. It's 25 for the wedding and 25 for baby. It appears to take young people longer to graduate from college, settle into careers and buy their first homes. What are they waiting for? Who are these permanent adolescents, these twentysomething Peter Pans? And why can't they grow up?" (TIME) This article reports that "social scientists are starting to realize that a permanent shift has taken place in the way we live our lives" and reveals that "the years from 18 until 25 and even beyond have become a distinct and separate life stage, a strange, transitional never-never land between adolescence and adulthood in which people stall for a few extra years, putting off the iron cage of adult responsibility that constantly threatens to crash down on them." A sidebar provides tips for parents to help them ease their children into young adulthood. | ||
