Many of the ceremonies and rites of passage that were once present in our culture have now vanished and young men and women are growing up without any way of knowing when they have arrived at adulthood. They know they are of an age where they are considered to be adults but many do not feel that they are adults and thus do not act like adults, choosing rather, as Robert Bly would put it, “to be grandiose, comfort-loving, ascenders”.
