It is a common term used to explain the extended adolescence my generation is
enjoying (some call it an identity crisis). 20 years ago my generation's
equivalent who stay at home on a Friday night with his/her slippers firmly on.
Instead my generation is living like a 20 year should... but on a 30 year olds
budget.
The "kidult" phenomena also explains why are streets are full of overweight 35
year olds wearing Simpsons t-shirts.
It is not wrong to be a kidult, it is just important to know you are one!
