No, my dear, *I* am a young adult. You are a child. Or a teenager.
I used to volunteer in the youth service and we were told we must refer to teenagers as 'young people', because the word 'teenager' is patronising. :roll: This is one instance where people are right to say that political correctness has definitely gone mad.

Yup. Teenager is not patronising, at least not to me.
