Coming of age is a young person's transition from childhood to adulthood. The age at which this transition takes place varies in society, as does the nature of the transition. It can be a simple legal convention or can be part of a ritual, as practiced by many societies. In the past, and in some societies today, such a change is associated with the age of sexual maturity (mid-adolescence); in others, it is associated with an age of religious responsibility.

  • Coming of age is a young person's transition from childhood to adulthood. The age at which this transition takes place varies in society, as does the nature of the transition. It can be a simple legal convention or can be part of a ritual, as practiced by many societies. In the past, and in some societies today, such a change is associated with the age of sexual maturity (mid-adolescence); in others, it is associated with an age of religious responsibility. Particularly in western societies, modern legal conventions which stipulate points in late adolescence or early adulthood (most commonly 18 and 21, at which time adolescents are generally no longer considered minors and are granted the full rights of an adult) are the focus of the transition. In either case, many cultures retain ceremonies to confirm the coming of age, and significant benefits come with the change. The term coming of age is also used in reference to different media such as stories, songs, movies, etc. that have a young character or characters who, by the end of the story, have developed in some way, through the undertaking of responsibility, or by learning a lesson.
  • Heranwachsender ist in Deutschland nach § 1 Abs. 2 Jugendgerichtsgesetz jede Person, die das 18. Lebensjahr, aber noch nicht das 21. Lebensjahr vollendet hat. Neben der gesetzlichen Situation stellt die Zeit des Heranwachsens, die man auch als Coming of Age bezeichnet, eine besondere gesellschaftliche dar.
  • La majoria d'edat és l'edat que l'ordenació jurídica estableix per determinar la plena capacitat jurídica de la persona. La figura està motivada en la necessitat que la persona hagi adquirit una maduresa intel·lectual i física suficient per tenir una voluntat vàlida. En gran part del món, l'edat a partir de la qual un individu es considera plenament capaç està compresa entre els 16 i els 21 anys. En algunes parts d'Àfrica, la majoria d'edat s'assoleix als 13 anys, mentre la majoria dels països occidentals, s'assoleix als 18 anys. Tal és el cas de Espanya, Regne Unit o Uruguai. La Constitució Espanyola de 1978 estableix al seu article 12 la majoria d'edat als 18 anys. Quan una persona assoleix la majoría d'edat s'assumeix que té capacitat d'obrar, llevat que existeixi algun tipus de incapacitat.
  • 成年（せいねん）とは、法的には、単独で法律行為が行えるようになる年齢のことであり、一般社会においては、身体的、精神的に十分に成熟する年齢を指すことが多い。
