At what age does a boy chronologically become a man?
Despite life experience, maturity or responsibility. If none of it ever catches up to him, when does society look at a male and see a man instead of a boy?
Although there have been males at age 22 who have been known to hold successful stable careers, own homes, be happily and loyaly married and be responsible, active fathers… There have likewise been many more instances of 40 year old males being completely helpless, hopeless, useless f#@k -ups.
But no one is going to look at a 40 year old male (no matter how immature) and see a boy, just a very pathetic man. Equally, not many would look at a 22 year old male and immediately see man. Obviously, there are details that change the opinion of society along the way somewhere between 25 and 35, but strictly chronologically…
Where Does The Line Get Blurred?
At what age does it become appropriate to encourage, and at some point if necessary enforce, the rules of responsibility on the males of society? When is it appropriate to cut off the coddling of children and expect independant and responsible results of men? When do the excuses stop?
Where is the line between “growing up” and grown-up?
Something to ponder. . .
