There's a revolution in the life cycle.
People today are taking longer to grow up and much longer to grow old.
Adolescence is now prolonged
until age 30.
People don't feel fully grown up until they are in their 40's.
The fact that we are taking much longer to grow up and
much longer to grow old shifts all the stages of
adult life ahead by about 10 years:
40 is what 30 used to be.
50 is what 40 used to be.
60 is what 50 used to be.
We now have, not one, but several adult lives to be prepared for and
mapped out.
