Most young adults are pretty stupid. The brain is still developing at that age.
I would agree that they aren't kids at that age. Shouldn't have to coddle them, or treat them as if they're young children. But the majority of them will not have reached adult level maturity by 22, either.
Yeah, I've got some friends that age. I certainly wouldn't put them in the category of doing smart things. I was a super independent kid just by nature and was raised to take care of myself. I don't think that's all that common anymore. It's probably the helicopter parent syndrome still stuck around, they are worse off because no one ever took the floaties off and let them sink and now they still can't swim at all.
