Answer 2

Physically, kids all over the world mature at about the same rate.

Mentally depends on the schooling system and society. In america kids are brought up with less responsibility. Look at other countries where kids go to work from an early age, have to get their own food, look after their brothers and sisters because both parents work and there is no childcare.
These countries also don't have a completely fat society, and I believe they mature faster. Not by choice.

Answer 3

I think it depends on which country. In countries where there is a lot of death, disease, war, I think kids have to mature faster in order to survive. I know is some other countries it is considered ok for kids to have wine with dinner with their parents, but in the US it is not. It is the parents job to make sure that their kids are responsible. It has nothing to do with the country they live in. Kids that are not made to do chores grow up thinking that everything should be handed to them. My son just turned 3 last month and he has to pick up his toys and he helps put clothes in the dryer. He does get change to put in his bank, but he has to earn it.

Answer 4

I think they mature physically and mentally mature faster then kids in the USA and West. Especially if you happen to reside in the Middle East and places like China. Girls are more likely to get their period a lot earlier then girls in the West due to the hot climate in the Middle East.

Answer 5

i dont think so. i am currently international for the time being. my hhusband is military and they are very immature here.. very "candy-ish" if you know what i mean? the girs especially are very loud and cover their face and giggle all the time at everything! they arent allowed to have sex till they're married. i know a girl who was pregnant and wasnt married, her parents disowned her and she just had her baby and is currently living in a single mothers homeless shelter.. its crazy! i am a parent of a 3 year old and one on the way and i couldnt see myself doing that, but customs are customs and there is nothing we can do about it...
