In my state and in many states you had to be at least 18 to be out of education. In many others its 16. Do you know of any examples lower than that?

[–] exohuman@programming.dev 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No. When you go under 16 you are talking about a child that is too young to make executive decisions in the outside world that would be expected of an someone with a GED. High school and GED are culturally signs of being ready for adulthood. Under 16 is too young.

No, being 18 is the sign of that. There are 40 year olds without highschool degrees or GEDs, they're still adults.
