Negotiating adulthood : establishing an adult identity through offline and online social networks.
No full texti, 95 leaves.Includes bibliographical references: leaves 88-90.Many young adults are moving back home, putting off marriage and having fewer children than previous generations as an act of negotiating adulthood in a harsh socioeconomic climate. Social networking sites have increased in users and are spaces for connection and socializing. How are young adults defining adulthood in a context of rapid and complex societal and technological change? I interviewed fifteen young adults between the ages of 22 to 32. From these interviews I determined that young adults have a great amount of freedom in negotiating what markers are of importance and how to achieve them. They experience this type of freedom as a result of their class and the support of their family. Social networking sites are as a space for expression, however this behavior hasn't become common practice
