[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No one, in regular conversation, refers to their 17 year old as a child. No one. [/quote] You sure about that? Step on over to the college forum and see how people refer to their HS seniors and older. Here's one talking about full fledged adults as "kids" in college. People very much think of their 17 year olds as kids/children. Unless they are the children of people they don't like. Those are all adults, naturally. https://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/1012807.page[/quote] I've never heard any parent refer to their offspring as "my adult." It's my kid, my child, my son/daughter. It is a reference to the relationship, not the age of the offspring.[/quote] So, my child, right? GTFO hair splitter.[/quote]
