No it doesn't. It ends at 19 technically in the US

It's pretty controversial. I like to consider myself a teenager though.

Consider yourself whatsoever you wish, I don't have a problem with that.
Before you ask, please consider how futile the question is.
Huh, @DiamondPandaDP , I thought it ended when you technically became an adult, at 18.
Guess I must be technically incorrect (technically impossible though).
The reason they call teenagers that is because they're in their TEENS: thirTEEN, fourTEEN, fifTEEN, sixTEEN, sevenTEEN, eighTEEN, nineTEEN. As soon as you're 20, you're no longer a teen. 18 and 19 are weird ages, because you are legally an adult, even though you're still a teen.

That's illogical reasoning. Either you're an adult or not. Legality matters far more than opinion, or feeling.

I think the proper designation is YA. As the person is either 18, or 19. As for being an Adult, that comes from Federal Law allowing 18 years olds in America to sign contracts and vote, plus they could marry without parental consent, whereas prior to this, they could do neither until they were the age of Majority, 21. That's not a feeling, nor illogical. It's the law.

The law is just and logical, in most cases.

I thought teen-age ended at 17/18.
So long as the ending teen is in the number, you're considered a teen. You just happen to have also fallen into the category of Majority in America, with the changes in the law. Confusing, I suppose. But I fell into the Majority just as the law was changed.

It is not illogical. Quite the opposite, it's completely logical and factly. Teens has nothing to do with legally being an adult or not, it's simply what we call the age group that ends on "teen". Which the full word describes quite well, "Teenager".
It's a very varied age group, since the bottom age is considered a child while the top is technically an adult, albeit a young one.

Varied, it may be, but inferior, it is.

Hey, I used to be a teen. LOL Somebody, me thinks, is looking to incite a fight. Simmer down, folks, or this thread will get locked. We're all old enough to know better.

It must be true because scientists say it......
People are not full adults until their 30s, scientists say.................
"‘There isn’t a childhood and then an adulthood. People are on a pathway, they’re on a trajectory’.....................“What we’re really saying is that to have a definition of when you move from childhood to adulthood looks increasingly absurd,” Professor Peter Jones, a neuroscientist at the University of Cambridge, told journalists at an event in London.
“It’s a much more nuanced transition that takes place over three decades."

I'm not embarrassed. Over here the reports are that it's good for Seniors to play video-type games as a way of keeping the brain active, which staves off memory loss, et al. Being a ruptured brain aneurysm survivor, I am rather fond of my brain and hope it sticks with me for decades to come. (Oh, I should state I don't intend to leave this realm until after I reach the lofty age of 104. Random number, true enough, but we'll see if I get there. )

I agree with this. I'm nearly 22 and I still feel emotionally immature. I feel like your adult life REALLY starts at 30 nowadays (we millennials don't want to grow up!), but that may just be me. Everyone matures at their own pace - years ago people got married and started having children as young as 13.

...It dawns on me that I apparently don't know how old I am. I am turning 27 on the 23rd, not 28.
With that said, one of my cousins is turning 28 today so there's that
