Answer:

False.

Step-by-step explanation:

People are legally adults when they reach their legal adult age. In most countries, the legal age is 18, although often with some restrictions. The legal age is also called the age of majority, when a person stops to be considered a minor and becomes fully responsible for his or her actions.

The age of majority or the legal age does not have to correspond with the person's mental or physical maturity.

A legal age also means that a person, as an adult, may take part in some legal activities such as voting, marriage, drinking or gambling.
