This.
IMO you become an adult when you stop thinking what others should/could do for you and you take responsibility on what you could and should do for someone else.
- wyager 10y agoI think the GP's point was that you're not obligated to "take responsibility" for someone else in the general case, to the chagrin of the author. The only people I would generally accept responsibility for is a spouse or child.
- woliveirajr 10y agoYes, my original idea was spouse and my little girl. But some cultures consider that parents are responsability of the sons. Some people include brothers. Some include just women from the family. So, I preferred to mean it in a broader sense.
