I think that traumatic experiences are the ones that help you grow more, but obviously i don't hope anything bad happens to anyone. In general i think talking to people with different believes helps a lot and doing your own research as to not believe exclusively what you were taught (by family, school etc) to believe

I think it's just the experiences you go through throughout your life. The more you expose yourself and put yourself out there the more you learn and change to adjust. As you grow older you will think about your past and compare and realize what is more important in life and how to prioritize!

I think taking responsibility can help get more mature for example if you take care of a family member or a pet or when you work your first job or volunteer somewhere.

Being put in a situation where you are forced to shift your perspective can really help you mature. To me, a good sign of someone maturing is when they stop acting like the whole world revolves around them. As people grow up, they have a lot of different people that care for them and solve their problems for them. But when you take responsibility for your own actions and stop acting like everyone should take care of your problems for you that shows a lot of maturity.

I have always been told that I’m mature for my age. I think it has to do with the fact that I’m homeschooled. I also think it is has to do with the fact that I have gone through a lot. I had a toxic “best friend” in junior high. She insulted me quite a bit, which I believed practically everything she said. Most of the teasing was because I was homeschooled. She would invite me to stuff like birthday parties and all sorts of things, but would leave me out of the activities, conversations, and pretty much everything. I ended up becoming close friends with her younger sister; because when she would leave me out, me and her sister would have a great time.

Honestly just go with the flow everything will fall into place when I’m needs to, but that does not mean to put no effort into what you’re passionate about

I think it really depends but in my opinion I think one's circumstances and the things that they go through help them to mature. Being older doesn't make you more mature but the way that you act in certain situations and things like that and I think that depends on how you are brought up, what you know, and the experiences you witness or go through.

It's the experiences that make u more mature. For example, Some people experience more traumatic things (such as someone dying or losing a friend), while others haven't. The people that experience more things mature and learn. The people that haven't had a life-changing experience haven't learned anything which is why some people are childish.

(I'm not an expert at this but from my experience, this is what I think)

I think the hard and tough times in life help you mature. That's when you see the reality of things, and become more responsible and understanding. And after you get through the tough times your whole point of view has changed and you become more mature.
