Today we are going to talk about \u201cAdulthood\u201d. Is adulthood about our age and the national law in the country we live in, or is it about our maturity \u2013 our social or financial status? Is it just a number on your passport or our level of responsibilities? Does it have anything to do with the fact that we perhaps still live with our parents? I am sure that each and every one of you has your own unique answer- as do our guests today.<\/p>\n<p><strong>absolutely unfair<br><br><\/strong>In our first category, \u201cabsolutely unfair\u201d, Leo from Germany is sharing how disrespectfully he was sometimes treated by other people because he was just a kid. Leo could not wait to become a legal adult, in Germany this is at the age of 18 years old, and finally, be taken seriously by people around him.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>absolutely misjudged<br><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In our second category, \u201cabsolutely judged\u201d, we hear from Huriye, a caring mother from Turkey who was judged by a dentist in Norway for accompanying her 16-year-old daughter to the dentist\u2019s appointment. Poor Huriye looked like a helicopter mother in the doctor\u2019s eyes because she treated her daughter like a child.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>absolutely independent<br><br><\/strong>In our last category, \u201cabsolutely independent\u201d, Eleonora from Bulgaria tells us how proud she is of making independent adult decisions on her own, for example studying in a foreign country. Her parents had taught her how to be independent since she was a child and they allowed Eleonora to find her own way in life, like a true adult.<\/p>\n<p>What about you?
