Problem:
Based on information provided in Ch. 11 & 12, how do you define "being an adult"? (Remember to support your opinions with course material and include information on physical, cognitive and social development.) How do close relationships (romantic relationships, friendships, and family relationships) change as individuals develop into adulthood? What aspects of development (physical, cognitive, and psychosocial) impact these changes? (Although there is a significant section in Ch 12 that discusses social development in childhood and adolescence, your discussion post MUST focus on adult relationships and development. Discussion posts that discuss childhood or adolescence will not be accepted.)
