Grow Up Or Grow Old

Just nicely in time to chime in with the last Rebelution Conference, StatsCan has released a study showing that (shock) kids are in fact and in statistic taking longer to grow up these days.

People say, "Times have changed".

But I think that 'the times' are saying, "People have sure changed".

In recent years, both young men and women have delayed many transitions. For example, in 2001, half of all 22-year-olds were still in school. Only one in five had a partner (usually common-law), and one in 11 had children.

In 1971, three-quarters of young adults at the age of 22 had left school. Nearly half were married and one in four had children.

Kids, you have one of two choices. Grow up earlier, or grow old earlier.
