    When do you genuinely become an adult? - Shannon Odell

    Explore how scientists define adulthood, and find out if there’s a specific age at which we reach maturity. --Most countries recognize 18 as the start of adulthood by granting various freedoms and privileges. Yet there’s no exact age or moment in development that we can point to as having reached full maturity. If there’s no consensus on exactly when we reach maturity, when do we actually become adults? Shannon Odell shares how scientists define adulthood using stages of brain development.Lesson by Shannon Odell, directed by Biljana Labović.This video made possible in collaboration with Bezos Family FoundationLearn more about how TED-Ed partnerships work: https://bit.ly/TEDEdPartnersSupport Our Non-Profit Mission----------------------------------------------Support us on Patreon: http://bit.ly/TEDEdPatreonCheck out our merch: http://bit.ly/TEDEDShop----------------------------------------------Connect With Us----------------------------------------------Sign up for our newsletter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdNewsletterFollow us on Facebook: http://bit.ly/TEDEdFacebookFind us on Twitter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdTwitterPeep us on Instagram: http://bit.ly/TEDEdInstagram----------------------------------------------Keep Learning----------------------------------------------View full lesson: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/when-are-you-actually-an-adult-shannon-odellDig deeper with additional resources: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/when-are-you-actually-an-adult-shannon-odell#digdeeper----------------------------------------------Thank you so much to our patrons for your support!

    What makes Thomas Jefferson so disputed? - Frank Cogliano
