Do your parents ever become your peers?

Asked by tinyfaery (44084points) May 16th, 2009

Being on jury duty this week made me think, if the legal definition of my peer is anyone over the age of 18, that drives and/or votes, and has not been convicted of a felony, then at what age do my elders become my peers? Are my parents my peers? What about my grandfather, is he my peer? My idiot 19 year old nephew?

Or, is the idea of a peer really a generational thing? Are my peers just anyone aged, say 28–48?

What is your definition of peer?
