There are several reasons why children may mature earlier than expected in modern life. Lifestyle and environmental factors like unhealthy habits at home or lack of parental role models can influence children. Family stress from divorce or separation can cause children to take on more mature roles. School pressure to perform well and pass exams from parents and teachers places stress on children. Some children are forced to do things meant only for adults like work, care for siblings, or dangerous activities, accelerating their maturity. Overall, children should be allowed to mature at their own pace in a supportive home environment free from undue pressure or responsibilities.
