Higher adult age to 19

Petition Details

Set the adult age to 19 as 18 year olds are still so young as they still have the same mindset as a 17,16 year old and most if not all are still living with their parents , why are they forced to grow up because of the law

Additional Information

Because 18 is way to young and people use it as a way to be weird for example “she/he’s 18 so it doesn’t matter” which is alarming! And again 18 is way to young for a person to be considered a adult they’re not just magically grown up with working 9-5 hours jobs do better

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. Your petition refers to "adult age", but people gain different rights and responsibilities at different ages, and we're not sure what rights and responsibilities you want to be postponed to the age of 19.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
