In the Odyssey, what does it mean to “come of age”? How does this compare with “coming of age” in modern times?

Answer:  

In the book, "come of age" is referred to as becoming mature. The Odyssey can be viewed as a coming- of- age story in which a young man, Telemachus, is raised without a father, matures and realizes his great potential. Telemachus starts off as a quiet young boy that is stepped all over by the suitors and then later grows to a brave and mature young man.

In Modern times most people view "coming of age" as the process of growing up or entering into adulthood. An example of coming of age is a girl who turns 14, then 15, 16, 17 and 18. It is also viewed just like the book sometimes.

I am just a year older than you, and I have dealt with all of the bullyings I can handle and more. One thing you can do is be apart of a group instead of putting yourself on your own where it is easier to get targeted. Talk to an adult if it keeps happening. Something I did was talk to everyone in each class (unless you are the same people all day) and evaluate who would be a good friend. If they come off as sweet but show malice to others, avoid them. Also, avoid people who come off as disrespectful to their elders. They will only end up being the one doing something wrong and pinning it on you. message me if you want to talk about any specifics because I can help with tons of situations. if you need someone to vent it to you can talk to me! ;)
