Well , it's just bothersome when people all around you are hurling words like " That guy dam immature " or " That guy dam childish " . The most ironic thing is that most of them can't even spell right . But then again . . . What is the definition of "Immature" and "Childish" ? Apparently , MANY people think that they're always more mature than the other , well , I hope this post may clarify somethings .

First , let's find out the meaning of the word , "Immature" and "Childish" .

immature
Adjective
1. not fully grown or developed
2. lacking wisdom, insight, or stability because of youth

childish
Adjective
1. immature or silly: childish fighting over who did what
2. of or like a child: childish illnesses

Okay , first of all , maturity doesn't just mean whether you're physically developed , but also mentally , emotionally and spiritually .

Someone who's mature would :-
Be tolerant
Have you ever met people who are older than you who are really patient ? Example : You know of your annoying nature , and yet , they didn't scold you once , instead , they sat down , and had a little chat with you . When in fights , they're the first to back down and apologize for their wrongs .

Be Reasonable
That person would be someone who can understand what situation that person is in , and how to react to it . For example , a bunch of friends were hurling jokes at each other , one of them felt offended and was getting angry , the mature person would be able to sense this , and stop the jokes at once , the immature one however , would continue joking on until...*BOOM* . He would also be able to speak with logic , even in an argument .

Be constructive
They would be constructive in their thoughts and criticism . You know the youths today don't you ? Many people who are aged 13-18 still swear and cuss every moment when they're not happy . You hear all the colorful language coming out of their mouths , even in public . Some of them even do it for fun . When they want to criticize someone , all they do is swear and cuss and swear again , without even pointing out their points of the criticism . Which is pointless really . Okay , this is getting hard to explain , let me just give you an comparison of a mature person and an immature one :-
When teacher sucks at teaching . . .
Immature : F!@# you C!@##$%B$@ useless mutha!@$@#$ ... dono how to teach don teach lah ! Ma!@$$ ...
Mature : Wow , this teacher is really bad at teaching , she could hardly speak English properly and she's teaching English . I think we should tell this to her nicely eh ?

Notice the difference , if the teacher hears about this , who would she most likely listen to ?


Not look down on others
Mature people would hardly call someone else an immature as an insult . Believe it or not , they themselves are able to understand the immaturity of others , and not blaming them for it , because they know that they would grow up one day . If they don't , they're just digging their own grave . Some of them would want to help , and in the end being childish just for the sake of reaching out to them , however , them immature fools would be ungrateful to them , calling them immature instead .

Learn to speak
Mature people wouldn't go : IiE aRe MaTuReS OwHx ! . I mean , if you're fully developed , why can't you even speak in a language which everyone understands ? It's rather ironic when so many of them "MATURE" people type like this :" GrOw up larhx ! Kid ! u so immature lah u . "


There are many more things that are able to define a mature person , but I wouldn't want to list them all out . I am by all means not calling myself a fully matured person , instead , I'm just proving my immaturity to the world . The only thing is that I might be a little less immature than some others . A little...
