    I’m quite frustrated right now having just turned 18 that I’m not considered an adult. I have yet to understand why I’m old enough to, as you said, die for my country, drive a car, get married, etc. I’m not mature enough to drink yet apparently, but I can go buy cigarettes that will give me cancer later on in my life. No, I’ve never drank in my life, nor do I desire to. It’s the principle behind it that bothers me. I can get married, but forget a house to go with that budding family. I feel that once you’re an adult, you should be an adult all the way. I don’t understand why they don’t lower it all to 18 or raise it all to 21. I’d be happy either way they made it.
