That's because in Europe (Eastern Europe at least) kids mature earlier. At
age 14 or 15 they already have to pick what they want to do with their life,
whether to go to middle school or job training. By the time they're 18, they
can speak at least 2 if not 3 languages while some 18yr olds in the US can't
even locate the US on the world map.
