The old ways worked back in the day of the Boomers.
And so it works today for the Zs.

No one mentioned anything about those issues.When will we hear from the "men" who frequent this site who boast about never having had children (by choice) or never having married, or giving up on the idea after a divorce? How about the people here who crow about dropping a job at the first inconvenience and leaving without a moment's notice? Then there are those who feign righteousness when they "choose" to destroy a human life if it's inconvenient for them. All of which is to say nothing about the frightened children who are scared to tears of anyone who looks in any superficial way different from them. Are any of these kinds of losers "mature"?
The "losers" inhabit the entire spectrum of life.No one mentioned anything about those issues.
"Mature"No one mentioned anything about those issues.
I hear this discussion quite a bit. For example, people on the plains 150 years ago married in their teens. They had lots of work well before age 18. They started families in their teens.
Fast forward 75 years later and people were still marrying early, working, and starting families in their teens. As kids, they dated in their teens.
And what about dating? At what age should a child begin to date? When should they go out on their own? At what age should a parent chaperone a date? What about group dates? What is the maturity level? Biology hasn’t changed all that much in the grand scheme of things, but how much have norms and culture changed?
Thoughts?
In College, the Student Lives Like a Child. So He Graduates With the Mind of a Child.Back in the day there was the draft. And nothing will force maturity on a person quicker than a stint in the military.
Emasculation Is by Design of the HeiristocracyBut parents and society today seem bound and determined to raise cowardly, weak and dumb young people anymore.
When kids grow up tougher it makes them more mature and responsible adults. Kids should be absolutely kids, but the sooner you start making them mature the better off they are when they graduate school.
Kids are pussified now. Most people between the ages of 16 and 30 today make me sick.
Mamas' Boys Will Seek a Female Father-FigureWe live in a matriarchal society today where kids are coddled and protected from anything deemed 'bad' by women's standards. The pro women's organizations and movements have gutted our patriarchal society completely. They are myopic androphobes with too much power.

The never-spoken converse of that is that nothing will force immaturity on a person quicker than going to college, as long as students aren't paid for their grades and have to live deprived and childishly on part-time jobs. As long as this medieval "education" is forced on us by those who give their brats an adult allowance to live on, college for the Unfortunate Sons is for teenagers who are afraid to grow up.
Typically, a friend of mine in high school was, at 16, as mature as a 25-year-old. But after 7 years of college and law school, he wound up as immature as a 16-year-old.
Biological maturity is about the same. Social maturity is not. Looking at those 17 to 21, most do not have the social skills to handle work and living on their own. Almost universally, employers want employees who have the the social skills to communicate effectively with customers, management, and other employees. Years on social media, being schooled on a computer, and communicating with mostly fictional and anonymous characters, they simply don't know how to handle real life situations and problems. Rather than going out into the real world, to live their life they bury themselves into social media attempting to isolate themselves.Because a lot of what happens now may be due to the social media influence which of course did not exist back in the day the way that it does now, yes, there was more maturity back in the day.
God bless you always!!!
