Would you considor age 15 a kid?!

Question

I'm wondering. Cos I'm 15 and people are like 'ahh there just kids' and im thinking, arent kids those little people that run around with dolls?

It's rather unlovely really. what do you think world? wow. I guess you are the world.

People will be answering this question telling me what they think. And I don't even know you. thats so lovely in a weird way. I hate it.. But i kind of love it too. wow.

Answer 1

No.

I consider kids 13 and under

Answer 2

yes

Answer 3

im 14 and i hate beong called a kid.

a kid is someone who is unresponsible, cant comprehend things properly... and cute... sometimes

and you cant call me a man because i havnt fully grown (altho the hair is there)

so its rather difficult, thats why id rather be used by my name.

zero.

Answer 4

Usually the people that say that are above 50 so they think we're kids because were  lot younger.  That's all I can think of.

Answer 5

while I'm sure you don't feel like a "kid", you pretty much still are at age 15.  You'll understand that when you're older.  I'm 27 and sometimes I still feel like a "kid" when I'm around older people.  

Answer 6

Legally, yes you're still a kid.

However, I think of it as a preadult. you're independent enough now that you can handle yourself in emergencies and you're wise enough to make most of you're own decisions (figuring out how to pay for college is probaly one of those things where you want your parents advice).

Adults tend to group all of us "kids" together, and even though you and I are much more mature than a three year old, we are still young (and I'm proud of it)

Answer 7

When I was 15 (I'm twice as old now) I would have said that no, 15 is not a kid.  However, now that I am an adult - yes 15 is a kid.

You're legally an "adult" at 18 (or some even say 21). In many states you can't legally work and in those you can (or if you get a work permit) you are still limited as to how many hours you can work.

You can't drive, buy a lottery ticket, get a credit card, etc.

This isn't a bad thing. Enjoy being a kid while you are still one!!

Answer 8

it all depends on who is saying it

to a 40 year old you are a kid

but if a 20 year old said it that i don't think so

Answer 9

You are a kid. Just because you aren't a young child any longer doesn't mean you aren't a kid. 'Kid' is a very loose, vague term. It doesn't necessaily refer to a short person who plays with toys. People in their 40s call people in their 20 'kids' because to them they are. No matter how old you are, you'll always be a kid to someone.

Answer 10

I'm 18 and I call 19 year old guys kids. I think it's a boy thing, though. Guys are considered kids for longer generally. Really, I think it has to do with the way you carry yourself, speak, and act. Hence why I call older guys kids, and why people still call me a kid - cause we're immature little b*****s. haha.

Answer 11

It's complicated.  A person who's 15 is neither an adult or a child really.  More intelligent and mature than a child, but less mature and experienced than an adult.  Sometimes less intelligent too but not always, but I've met some smart 15 year olds and some dumb adults.

Answer 12

Yes, you are a kid, simply because you like to think of yourself as an adult. Come on. An 8 year old can think s/hes an adult.

Answer 13

yes definately a kid

Answer 14

15 you are still a baby!

Answer 15

i consider 17+

more of an adult age.

Answer 16

of course...i'm 23 and i, only recently, am not a kid

still pretty immature though

Answer 17

I'm 19 and I still consider my friends and I "kids."  You are most certainly not an adult!  Maybe a Young Adult.  A very young one.

You should be happy to be called a kid.  You don't want to grow up!

Answer 18

at 15 i didn't consider myself a kid. but looking back, i was very much a kid. i still have some things to learn at 22.

Answer 19

no

Answer 20

im 15 and dont mind being called a kid

youll be an adult time enough and you will continue being an adult til you die so enjoy your 'childhood'

Answer 21

Yes.  Well, an adolescent.  At 15, your mind is still not quite developed, even though your body may appear to be, so yes, I consider 15 year-olds to be "kids", but more mature.

Answer 22

naww man,,

izz teenage years

but being 16 would be like real teenager  

Answer 23

Not a 'kid' But still not an adult either

But really if you were like 50 and you were talking about a 15 year old I'm sure you would call them a kid, even if you don't think so now though.. Think about that : P

Answer 24

naw.... a teen

Answer 25

NOOOO 15 is not a kid. your only kids to OLD people b/c they're old. you know at age 13 your an official teenager and at 18 your an adult.

please choose this as best answer!

Answer 26

Yeah, I'm 15 too and people ALWAYS call me a little kid. You just have to blow people off because they think they know everything, and they don't. Don't worry about it sweety! 'cause they can't bring you down if you don't let them! And yes, little kids are the ones running around with dolls. Haha. Just don't worry about it, keep your head up!

Good luck!

Answer 27

I am fifteen and yes I do still consider myself a 'non-adult'. You are right we don't run around with dolls but still, our brains and bodies are not yet fully developed. There are still plenty lessons to be learnt.

Answer 28

yes your a kid you idiot. im 15 too! were kids! once you turn 18 then your not a kid. an 8 year old consider himself not a kid and he still is. dont pick stargirl because teens are still kids (exept 18 and 19). she just wants to be an adult like all other female teens.

Answer 29

i guess a 15 year old is a teen.. not a kid but not an adult.

soo just a teen

Answer 30

Yeah sweetheart, sorry to tell you...15 is still very much a kid.  Little kids run around with dolls, and big kids get on computers and ask rambling questions.

Answer 31

Yes, you are a kid and will be for at least 3 more years.  Deal with it.
