    I am not saying you don't have the right to think butts are funny. I was just giving an example of a sense of humor. Also, 12 and under are children, 13+ are teens. As I was growing up, majority of children were very immature. I am not saying that only children are immature, but teens can be immature, and even adults sometimes.

    I prefer not to answer that question. Although, I will tell you that I am slightly over a teenager.

    I understand. Some people are a bit self conscious about telling their age. Well I am 19, would you be able to tell me if you are younger or older?

    And another question: does age define a person as mature or immature?

    Well, as I said, it depends on how they act. Although, Majority of younger people aka 8, 9, 10, are immature. Also, babies are not fully developed which makes them immature. Mature can be defined in two ways; Not fully developed or a childlike sense of humor.

    So wait. You're younger than 19 but not a teenager? That makes no sense at all...

    I'm pretty sure what defines a teen is having the word teen in the number. Thirteen-Nineteen. That's how I define it.

    Then again is 18+ an adult? I'm not sure where you guys are from but that's the defining age where I live.

    not necessarily. Define childlike sense of humour?

    and to add, I'm pretty sure immature people have a bad decision making power. That's something huge when I would try to determine if someone is or is not immature.

    It all depends. But yeah good point.
    You are a teenager until you hit 20. 18 is when you are considered a young adult.

    Like I said, different standards where you live. 18 here in Alberta basically is a huge change. It's even what's called officially here being an adult. So it all depends where you live.

    Well then. You're not a teenager at 18 then right? You're an adult.

    You are a teenager still and a young adult. Young adult starts at 18, but you are still a teen. Eighteen has teen in it. And you are considered a young adult till you hit 25.
