The moment you realised you were well and truly a grown up
I spent all of my youth living at home and even during my misguided years during tertiary education I still had my parents to rely on. There comes time however where you realise that you can't just pick up the phone and get your parents to bail you out the sh*t. They bailed me out when I almost got expelled from school and lots of other times when I was so drunk I could hardly get in my car never mind driving it back from the pub.

There was one occasion however where I realised that the game was up and I needed to look after myself. I got arrested in the USA and ended up in Jail. I lost my passport, my money and was basically a criminal in a foreign land.

So my question would be what one event in your life cemented you transition from spotty teenager into a responsible grown up?

PS - I was rightly aquitted in the USA, but the bastards lost my passport!

Sorry about the Passport. We can be thick sometimes, but to be fair, you guys lost my luggage.

So I think that makes you and I even. :)
