The Girls are Growing Up Too Fast?: The Adultification of Young Girls and the Pressure to ‘Mature’

By Courtney Daniella Boateng & Renée Kapuku

In a world where women are pressured into keeping up with a whole bunch of things, one that isn’t always spoken about much is ‘adultification’ - girls feeling the need to be grown. In today’s episode, we touch on the pressure for girls to mature into women, and how this may impact their experiences of childhood, teenage years and eventually have serious ramifications for the rest of their lives.
