I wasn't sure I was an adult in my parents' eyes until I was 23 and I surfaced at about 1.30 one Saturday afternoon (I was in one of my living at home again phases) and they both looked up from their lunch and said "Oh, are you here? We thought you hadn't gotten in yet" seeming more surprised that I had been tucked up in my own bed than if I had spent the entire night out. Would have been nice to have a ceremony, but I had to walk to my friend's house to pick up my car...
