When does adulthood start?

A group of young people

When do we really grow up?

At what age do we become adults? Many people assume it’s 18. It's an age when many leave home for university and also when we can vote in elections the UK.

Neil and Finn discuss this subject in 6 Minute English and look at some of the language of growing up.

This week's question:

a) 15
