Well, the vast majority of western society considers 18 the adult age.

Just because they consider it "adults" doesn't mean they're right. They only did that because they opened a can of worms by allowing 18 year old teens to vote. Other European countries are now opening another can of worms by lowering it to 16 by voting, and you know what happens next, not only 18-19 year olds are now "adults", now 16, 17, 18 and 19 year olds are now "adults".
