Do college kids/adults just seem like kids as you age?

I remember when 16-18 seemed like being an adult and so grown up but now I look at kids this age today and they seem so young. I'm even calling college students in their 20s kids. Am i just getting old and seeing this differently, is this normal, or am I insane? High schoolers literally look like middle school to me now

Normal. High school and college look the same to me anymore.

I sat in the UT student section at the game over the weekend.

I felt super old.

I don't understand half the lingo they use anymore. I can't relate to their vocabulary.

I have a hard time figuring out who’s in high school and who’s in junior high when I go to basketball games. I’m in my early 30s

I still think it depends on the individual. Take a look at some HS and college athletes. Some of them still look older than they actually are.

Like watching college football, they all look like grown arse men even though they are 18-22

Yep, pretty much anyone under 28-30 looks young now.

Being on campus for games I just walk around and wonder if I use to look like that too

Most of the people I know or work with under 30 are the same.....entitlement mentality and just an all-around pussy

Anyone under say 30 years old looks like a kid to me, and there’s a real difficulty in distinguishing between a college kid from a high school kid. They all look very very young.

I feel kind of bad checking out the college chicks on game day. I’m only 33.

I was on the parade grounds tailgating recently after not being around college age kids for awhile and I promise you the freshmen I saw looked like they were about 12 to me. It's scary.

No. They are still my peers and I still hit bogies and Freds.

It does for my family. My cousins that are younger than me but still around 30 seem exactly the same. Everyone older also seems exactly the same. Other than drinking it seems everyone still plays the same role that they played when I was 10.

I consider anything before 21 a kid. If you haven't experienced 90% of the shite life throws at you, you are a kid.
