Adult or Grown-up Essay

 Dr. Lisa Damour's talk effectively addresses the functional issues that an adolescent

experiences. The phases of young adulthood and emerging adulthood are distinct. This

could be discussed based on both sets' achievement motivation.

 Yes, I believe that emerging and young adulthood are two separate stages. "Emerging

Adulthood" is a word used to describe a phase of development that most individuals in

their twenties in Western influence cultures, and maybe in other parts of the world, go

through between the ages of 18 and 29. While young adulthood is a distinct transitional

phase that lasts approximately of 18 and 25, during which the young adult participates in

autonomy and personality creation through critical developmental activities. This is

because as times goes, the emerging or just grownups meander from one aim to the next,

whereas young adulthoods set and execute important goals. Also, Emerging adults are

more concerned with immediate gratification, whereas young adults are more concerned

with long-term pleasure. In addition, the young adults give up easily when they face an

obstacle while the young adults deal with the obstacles, to get some bigger payoff down

the lane.

 Many aspects of the early stages of development are influenced by one family' financial

level, along with how you perceive the world, what, how very much, and even how you

feed, the sort of childhood education you obtain, your general wellbeing, and how others

perceive you. It also has an effect on future final outcome (Landberg & Noack, 2019.

Individuals of all ethnic backgrounds assimilate cultural views as they grow older. Adult

evolution is guided by these integrated cultural beliefs. When people of different

backgrounds seek their own interests as they grow older, cultural disparities in emotional

and social aging emerge. People's perceptions of middle age are influenced by their

culture. People's perceptions of middle age are influenced by their culture. Cultural

values often shape the purpose of generativity, or passing on one's knowledge to the next

generation.  The rate and intensity of the midlife crisis, for example, thought to be greater

in western civilizations than in eastern cultures. The socio - economic status (SES) of a

person or a group refers to their social rank or position. It is frequently computed as a

composite of education, income, and occupation.

 Yes, I believe there are benefits to emerging adulthood. This is because Emerging adults

frequently describe their destiny as being one of opportunities, and they are confident in

their results of this case. The opportunities to experience is one of the benefits of owning

few attachments. Youth in this decade are more likely to spend less time supporting

others and much more time to concentrate on oneself. Emerging adulthood is a vital

phase for exploring one's identity and laying the groundwork for the rest of one's adult

life (Wood et al., 2018). The term "adolescence" has been extensively used throughout

social science and study, with the emphasis on the time and sequencing of changeover

activities such as leaving the house, completing college, marrying, and becoming a

parent. Numerous studies demonstrate that most people's well-being enhances when they

enter maturity. Emerging adults appreciate their independence from role expectations and

limitations, and they take pride in their advancement toward personality. I believe

individuals benefit from increasing social cognitive maturity, which allows them to better

comprehend oneself and others than they did as teenagers. According to social

psychologists, emerging people who respond to their parents' support and suggestions are

rightly regarded. This has helped to foster cultural creativity over time
