Report from the Girls Do Engineering Gala
What is adulthood and when does it really begin?
This is the topic that the guests of the "Without Taboos" program on Radio Four - Sonia Ziemba-Domanska, M.A., a psychologist at PJATK, and Hubert Wozniak, a computer science student at PJATK, as well as host Jakub Jamrozek and other invited interviewees - looked into.
- I'm not sure if I feel adult. Partly I think yes, I feel adult, but I am not independent, " says Hubert Wozniak, a student at the Polish-Japanese Academy of Information Technology.
Sonia Ziemba-Domanska, M.D., in turn, emphasizes:
- We can legally call adulthood; we turn 18 and we are an adult. It is possible to be mature and not be an adult, an adult. It is a preparation for how we function, how we understand the world, how we approach certain things. My maturity was primarily when I had my second child. That's when I started to feel mature. Adult I was, but mature? That was rather worked out by experience.
