To ask if you view 29 as young

[User7777000]

Young as in young in life.

I can’t tell the difference between 50-ish and 60-ish. Look about the same to me.

Just started adulthood for me (c.27), so yes (I'm 56).

Something like this

So yes

Yes 29 is pretty young but old enough to be making proper adult decisions. As a 61 year old I don't consider 60 old really. Still working full time and still a while to pension age. Maybe 70 old and 80 plus elderly.

Young adult 22-26.
Full adult 27-40
Middle aged 40-60
Older adult 60-75
Aged 75+

My youngest turned 26 and as far as I'm concerned my children are now all proper adults. It depends under what circumstances.

Yes. I would say anything under 35 is young.

35- 67ish is middle.

68+ is starting to get old in my book.

Yes

Well it depends on the context. I’m 40 so yes, in comparison to my age, I would say 29 is young.

However I, and many people I knew, had kids at 29 so it isn’t young as in ‘too young’ for responsibilities etc.

Well yes it is Young but young for what? I have children older than 29 by not much but they have proper adult lives .

How many times do you need to start theae stupid threads?

I think 29 is young but it's all relative. My mother is 93, lives totally independently and it's difficult to see her as "old" even though logically I accept that she is.

Yes I know what you mean about over 30 not being middle aged, I'm 37 and think of myself as "somewhere in the middle" but perhaps the PP category of "full adult" is more appropriate (even though I rarely feel like a full adult)

I’m early 20s. To me it’s something like

16-21 very young
22-29 younger adult
30-44 adult
45-65 middle aged adult
66-79 older adult
80+ elderly
90+ very elderly

Depends on the person, obv, but for today’s university graduates who are establishing themselves in their careers, living in rented accommodation, aren’t married & don’t have kids, I would say yes they are young at 29.

But times change. My mum left school at 16, went straight into FT work, married at 20 and by 29 had 3 children, two of which were of school age and a mortgage. I certainly wouldn’t have described her as ‘young’ at 29.

Yes

I endorse this message.

So most people never get old?

Young up to 30
middle 30-65
old 65 plus
maybe

No, there is definitely a missing bracket inbetween Young & middle here, no way should a 30yr old be grouped with somebody in their 60s!!

Well I could accept over 35 as potentially middle aged, even though I'd say it starts at 40 really. 70 is the age or promise in the Bible so 35 is half that.

Yes, that's ridiculous.

Best yet. However, I'd say that post-65 there is a lot of variability. Some I'd class as old already due to poor health and these peope might seem elderly at 70-75. Whereas my MIL at 85 doesn't seem "elderly" at all.

Not especially. Old enough to have more than 2 brains to rub together and to use them.

"30-44 adult
45-65 middle aged adult"

Nah. You're definitely middle aged at 40 and everyone over 18 is an adult.

"66-79 older adult"

And yet a 50 year old is also an older adult.

Yes… unless you are a teenager, then 29 is ancient- obviously

I got divorced at 29 and felt that that was the age I truly felt grown up . Now 20 years later I think mid 30s is still young
