Adulthood occurs at 18 years of age. This is such a dangerous age at which a person is no longer a child, but not yet a fully equal adult. It is difficult to call an 18-year-old an adult, since most 18-year-olds commit inexplicable acts for which they are subsequently held accountable before the law.

After turning 18, huge opportunities arise to do things that were previously prohibited by law. Also, no longer a child, at the age of 18 he enters adulthood and is fully responsible for his own actions.

Let's consider what newly-made birthday boys can do at 18 years old.

Here are some interesting facts related to the number 18

18 degrees Celsius is a comfortable temperature for humans.
And 18 years is the age of harmony of the “Promised Wednesday”, the time of ideal relationships, eternal love, unshakable views, honest politicians, a full stomach and many smiles. The golf course consists of 18 holes. Golf is a great game with lots of positions and precise timing. The golf course is the map of life. Only at 18 can the winner's prize wait for its owner at the very bottom of the abyss in life. Like a ball that successfully hits the hole. After all, you never know where you will find it and where you will lose it. And what is true recognition, and what is only the tinsel of false glory, only a select few have to know.

A racehorse name cannot be longer than 18 characters. Work is the foundation, the beginning, the start of a great, independent life path that begins at 18. Persistence, stubbornness, the pursuit of a goal, an incredible horse’s ability to work is the key to success in the future.

Australian football is played in teams of 18 players. A person at 18 is only capable of generating fantastic ideas. In order to implement them, he needs a strong, robust and reliable team. And also - there should be true friends nearby, with whom it is equally fun to work, study, and relax.

Can a person be recognized as fully capable before the age of 18?

Practicing lawyer Elizaveta Khudyakova answers this and subsequent questions to the Federal News Agency .

As a general rule, a citizen is recognized as fully capable upon reaching eighteen years of age. In some cases, this age can be reduced:

— If a minor decides to enter into legal marriage. If the marriage is declared invalid by the court, the person loses his status.

— A minor over 16 years of age can be emancipated with the consent of his parents or by a court decision if he works under a contract or is an entrepreneur.

Everything marked 18+

Naked life, without exaggeration and embellishment, is now quite legally available to your gaze. You can read, watch, order “strawberry” without fear or reproach. But do you need this? The question is not for the boy, but for the husband...

But what if, after all, the very essence of the sweetness of the “forbidden fruit” is interesting? Here are some brilliant holiday !

Moulin Rouge - elegant dresses, corsets, cabaret, extravaganza of sound and dance.

Dirty dancing - Cuban rumba, Argentine tango, rhythmic samba, incredible tempo, closeness of bodies and souls in an atmosphere of twilight.

The aroma of the East - soft lines, transparency of fabrics, incense, hookah, a belly dancing master class for everyone in the dim light of floor lamps.

Interesting offers with a small payment

If you don’t have money to open even a small business? There remain interesting professions with a small income, for the soul, so to speak. For example:

  1. Hairdresser. If you don’t get a professional education, but just complete courses, you won’t earn much from it, especially in a small town. But if the work is interesting, then over time you can reach an excellent level of income thanks to a regular clientele. And opportunities for starting a business are emerging. For example, opening a barber shop.
  2. Salesperson in a pet store. If you love animals and have the ability to handle them, the work will be a pleasure even for a small pay. And then it is possible to rise up the career ladder to the director of a store or chain.
  3. Animator. If a young guy has a cheerful disposition and knows how to get along with people, why not? And then your own event agency will loom on the horizon.
  4. Mystery shopper. Do you like shopping and entertainment centers? I can't think of a better part-time job.

And while my son and I were thinking and wondering, I had another question.

Vote in elections at all levels

Justice, transparency, honesty! Rose-colored glasses of bright dreams about the future of the country in the clear eyes of a young man who believes in the election advertising of politicians. Confident movements, a stroke of the pen, a strict gait. We have the chance to change the future! And we will do it!

As entertainment you can offer:

Strategy is a game for all generations. A plan, calculating the enemy’s moves several steps ahead - what could be more exciting? Yes, with a glass of vintage Chardin, and all night long...

The night of the murder - there were no signs of trouble. Dancing, drinking, laughing here and there. And suddenly... Scream! Dead body! Killed! No one should go out and no one should come in! Let's try to find the killer on our own! Similar games (related to the ancient Sherlock Holmes) are now very popular. Sets of “evidence” and the “corpse” itself can be purchased.

Is it possible for a young guy to earn good money on the Internet?

I became concerned with this question while observing how much time my son spent at the computer. I know that young people often find opportunities to earn money remotely. The options are different. If a guy is well versed in information technology, then writing programs, developing games, or creating and maintaining websites can be an excellent source of income. Of course, you need, to use your son’s youth slang, to “upgrade your skill.” But with practice comes experience, and with experience comes real money.

Other possibilities are the professions of a copywriter, translator, and editor. If you can find regular customers, a stable income is guaranteed.

You can master a modern profession - a blogger on YouTube. Earn money from likes and views, from advertising. This takes time and effort to promote. But if you know how to present material in an interesting way and touch upon topics that are relevant to people, then getting money for uploading videos - who would refuse?

There are still opportunities: making money on social media. networks, taking surveys, typing texts from photographs. You won’t earn much from any of the above. But this could be a starting point or additional income.

Here is the answer: yes, if you want, then it’s quite possible to make money on the Internet.

Serve on the jury

Unusual views, an alternative vision of a deep plot, impulsive decision-making. These qualities are valued in eighteen-year-old magazine editors, cinema directors, and organizers of mass shows.

Why don't you organize a real show , with the participation of critics of different levels?

Movie night – sound, light, pose, facial expressions, emotion. All this is visible to a film critic. Falseness, pretense, frayed plot - too. In discussion, truth is born! Favorite films accompanied by a rich buffet, Oscars awarded to the most talented actors! Or maybe there are nuggets of this art among you? Maybe you could play this or that scene better? Maybe you are the one who deserves an Academy Award?

At what age can Russian citizens get married?

The law allows young lovers to marry from the age of 16 without parental consent, if there are good reasons for this: the waiting period and the birth of a child, living together with a common household. Permission for such a union is issued by local governments.

In some regions of the Russian Federation, the age of marriage may be even lower, but in this case permission from parents or guardianship authorities will be required.

You can buy and drink alcohol

Another forbidden fruit is asking itself to be picked up. Rip it off? And have a blast with friends at the bar? Such a development of “holiday” events is also possible!

A party in a bar (club) - classic cocktails and crazy “lights” prepared by yourself, dancing with a glass on your head, a kiss with a martini flavor - all these are different tastes of the forbidden fruit. The main thing to remember is that everything is good in moderation!

Ibiza at home - dance until you drop all night in the neon light. Without words, without thoughts, without fatigue. Music, Margarita and olives, games of Spin the Bottle and Twister. And there is nothing else in the whole wide world!

NEED TO!

Now you can!

So, after his eighteenth birthday, yesterday’s teenager officially receives the legally guaranteed right not to notify his parents of his intentions. An adult in Russia has the following rights:

- vote,

- get married,

- drive,

- engage in business activities,

- buy alcoholic drinks and energy drinks, smoke.

Federal News Agency /

Regarding the last point, the authorities of our country have long been discussing the possibility of raising the age limit for purchasing alcohol and tobacco products to 21 years and equating it with the standards adopted in most European countries. It is important that, according to opinion polls, this initiative is supported by the majority of the country’s adult population.

Do not forget that all newly acquired rights come with a full range of responsibilities as a citizen of the Russian Federation.

Be at war

Not real, symbolic! For example, play paintball with friends!

IT IS FORBIDDEN!
