According to the article “Growing up? Not so fast,” Lev Grossman says the phenomenon of “twixters” is becoming more and more common and habitual. “Twixters” aged 18 to 25 and beyond have become life stages in their own right. In other words, they are stuck between adolescence and adulthood. Twixters don't want to grow up too quickly and enter the adult world. Some sociologists believe that this is an opportunity to allow the younger generation to choose their lifestyle and seek their purpose. However, some economists believe that the cultural machinery used to transform children into adults is broken. However, this phenomenon is not only caused by the morality of society but also by the economy of society. Therefore, Lev Grossman concludes that the new generation is more difficult to grow up than before. This article tells the truth and facts about “twixters”. Twixters seem to take longer to graduate from college than others and it takes them longer to start their careers and buy their first home (Grossman 1). Furthermore, social norms and financial means do not allow twixters to grow faster; therefore, they began to refuse to enter into adult speech (Grossman 1). Besides, twixters are not lazy. They are merely reaping the rewards of decades of wealth and social liberation in the United States (Grossman 1). First, Lev Grossman compares the age of marriage in the past and in the present; the age of marriage was 21 years in the past while it is 25 years or even more in the present (Grossman1). He claims that twixters take longer to sort out their lives. For example, in China, the marriage age was generally 18 to 20 years old. However, this phenomenon has changed over time. Nowadays, people start...... middle of paper ...... to build a city at the beginning. Additionally, they want their offspring to be able to live in a better lifestyle and environment. Therefore, they left the best source for them. For example, in the past there was a system called hereditary system whereby the older generation would pass on power to the future generation. Nowadays, people are reaping the results that the older generation left us. To conclude, this article exposes the facts of the twixsters. Lev Grossman says twixsters are caused by society and the environment, not just ourselves. As a result, adolescents will have more difficulty growing up than before. Under these circumstances, this phenomenon will affect twixsters for the rest of their lives. If society does not pay attention to this, it will not only harm the morality of society, but also affect the economy of society. In other words, no one contributes to society!
