Regarding item 4 in the article, about it being \\\"easier to see the difference between a teen and a young adult if you are a teen or young adult\\\":
In my early 20s, I had a job as a movie theatre doorman, charged w/ turning the under-18s away from the R-rateds. I would have told you that, only a few years before, when I\\\'d been in high school or starting college, I could easily have told the difference between HS-aged and over-18, but at that time, my age-radar had already become very much less reliable.
Of course when I was in my teens I hadn\\\'t been checking [=IDs=], so perhaps my impression wasn\\\'t accurate. Nevertheless, that\\\'s what I believed at the time--and maybe it WAS spot on.
