For my fist paper I talked about how emerging adulthood does benefit the individual. During my podcast I asked Paul, if he had felt that he had achieved the critical life stages. He agreed and said that he did feel like he has achieved the critical life. But he realized he still enjoyed the activities that he did when he was younger. I feel as though today peoples lives are “messy”. There isn’t necessarily a correct order life goes in anymore. It tends to now just be with what works with the specific person.
