> social and emotional competence

I feel that so much. I'm a first generation vietnamese american (born and raised in america) and it's very disappointing to see my own family lash out (at each other or even strangers) when there is some issue where the answer is unknown.

It's also very frustrating when there's such a strong emphasis on the idea that elders always know best and anybody younger cannot question them.

Discipline, wisdom, and maturity are probably the main aspects that I think define how "adult" somebody is.
