Do 18-year-olds seem young to you?

If so, how young?
I’m 18 so they don’t really seem young or old to me..they just seem like my peers. I feel like it would be hard for someone my age to seem like a kid even to an older person though because we look like adults, don’t we?

Well, to be honest, I once thought 18 year olds were wise and sage. Now that I am 21 I see that I was so so so wrong about myself. When I was 18 I was extremely naive and blind to a lot of the world. Something that, I believe, holds true for most young people. The only way to learn more and "grow up" is to live more and have more life experience. Of course every person is different and has a different background, but I feel as if there is so much to learn between the ages of 18-20, and from 20-24. It is the time when you start to lock in your identity, and discover who you are. So, if you asked me if 18 years old is young, I would say yes.

I am 27 years old. 18 year olds still seem like kids to me. I've met some who were more mature, some who were less so. It depends on the individual.
