Quarter Life Crisis

I read an article the other day about how this generation of 20-somethings are taking longer to grow up than our parents. If sociologists classify an adult as finishing education, declaring financial independence, getting married, having a child and leaving home, then 77% of women in their twenties had reached adulthood in 1960. Today it's less than half. 

I'm going to be 21 in less than a month and to be honest, this statistic doesn't scare me.
