this depends a lot on where you live. In the United States the age of adulthood is 18. However, you can not drink or gamble until the age of 21.
Im not one hundred percent sure but i believe you can not purchase a handgun until the age of 21 as well. at least in the state of california. i could be wrong.
To the truth,

At 13, girls are considered grown-ups and they have menstruation already. At 14, men are already matured due to the growth of pubic hair. However, 18 is the age when minority ends under the law of most countries.

in the US its 18, in other countries however such as germany it is 16 but if you live in the US you aren't a legal adult until the age of 18 ; ) you do get some rights with sexual intercourse at the age of 16 but u can look into that...

In the U.S.A. when you're 21 you are legally OK to do everything. However you're never really grown.

Should be 18, but that doesn't explain why alcohol purchase has to wait til 21

The American government considers you an "adult" when you turn 18.
