I am back with a new topic ... but this time it isn't that dark and morbid😆 i hope so😆..😳

Do u think that maturity comes with age... like we generally expect teenagers to act ..hmm... like teenagers😉 and a little "older" people soberly😉? Why do we assign the moods to age groups? Why do we look with surprise if a person of 60 is cheerful and fun loving with a wide eye and a teenager talking abt the philosophy of life like this =>😕😕😳??

How do u measure maturity? Is this measurable?😛

Wht are the reasons of maturity... is this life experiance? OR listening to ur parents or grandmothers/fathers? Or through books? Or something else??😊

Suppose if there is high degree maturity in a teen.. then how should she/he balance it with spice... or keep the same mood? Parents want their teen children to grow up and act like adults.. is this ok?? Take the other example, i have personally seen extremely indecisive and immature people in their 40's😕.. and i think wht they have learnt from life? (Im not talking abt fun-loving, im talking abt inability to take proper decisions in 40's) ... Is it a sin to be fun-loving at an older age... why?????

Finally.. is this a myth that maturity comes with age... or there are exceptions?😊

The debate is in ur hands😉😛!!!! Ur comments.

Maturity comes with experience and education(not only course-education but general), may be the more you grow the more you face experience and can educate yourself more.

There are definitly exceptions but usually maturity comes with age. I know some really mature and understanding people of my own age and really immature ppl of my own age. A person's maturity is more individual thing..I don't really think we can generalize a person's maturity based on the stereotypes we hear about age.

For some reason though, I find that a lot of Asian kids are more mature than American kids..but that's just from personal experience though. So, I don't know if that generalization has any validity 😕 .

I dont know to relate age and maturity..

there are several external factors influencing it including society..

This is individualistic..differs from case to case..

Hi All!

Maturity is somewhat directly proportional to age !!! But there are exceptions!! Else there is no sense or purpose in getting old in age.Some cases elder people behave in immature manner(as it happens in DM) and in some cases young people behave in mature manner(as it happens in DM😳.)

But onething I'm sure Elder people have more tolerance than young people.I've somuch to write on this topic but kids should'nt speak more!!

Cheers,

Mythili

Maturity = 1 + logA + S (B/G) [Y /O+1] 3 [D/M+1]

Where

A is Age in years ;
S is Shukla's constant (0.384) ;
B is Number of Bad expereinces in life ;
G is Number of Good expereinces in life ;
Y is Number of Younger Siblings;
O is number of Older Siblings;
D is number of Divorces;
and
M is Number of marriages.

Modifyer: Multiply the number by 1.32 if the subject has two X chromosomes; Multiply the number with 0.731 if the subject has an X and a Y Chromosome.




I have two doubts..
1.. the third factor.. how will i decide if it has to be a plus or a minus
2.....how did u come up with this equation


I will never ever ask anybody how to calculate maturity...u r a genius doctor

Its the range of variability and changes individuality.


Ability to come up with this eqaution is directly proportional to amount of time at hand and inversely proportional to maturity.

The same applies to understanding this equation also.We need a cambridge Professor to explain Shukla's constant...which is never constant 😆
