UNIT 5. The age of majority
Most of the people are talking about The age of majority, many say that should be at the age of 18 and some say it should be at 21, in fact they all have different opinions about it.
In United States this is one of the most discussed topics, because in many states The age of majority is at the age of 18 and in others it is at 21, so here is my opinion.
For me being an adult means too many things;
- First of all, being independient.
- It means you can get your own credit card.
- You can get your driver`s license.
- It means you should be able to get married.
- You are allowed to vote.
- You can drink alcohol.
- You have to work for living alone and pay many taxes.
- The most important, you have to be as responsible as you can.
Being an adult carries huge reponsibilities and several difficulties, drinking, driving, smoking, working, and moving somewhere away from your family all takes a certain amount of maturity.
In conclusion, i think The globlal age of majority ought to be at 21, because there are people out there, 16,17,18 and older who just aren´t ready enough for taking responsibilities.
