Hey, serious question... now that I'm 18, what are the specific rights I have now that I did not have before? What are the new things I can do?
-
go to clubs :D

Let us see:
You can get lung cancer legally through smoking now,
You can go to real jail instead of juvi,
If you're not driving yet, you can go straight to the test without the classes (at least in CA),
You can join the military,
You can be drafted (though don't hold your breath),
You can vote,
You can do a ton of stuff not without your parents consent.
I'm sure there's more but I can't think of them right now
O yeah,
You can host a tournament on your own (the most important one :P)
-
You can also lose all your money (or as much money as you like) through lottery tickets.
-
go to clubs
Not all clubs, only the 18+ ones. He'll still need a fake ID to get into the 21+ ones.
-
You can get called for jury duty...
-
As an emancipated adult, you can do basically everything not restricted to 21 and over. Which means you can also apply for credit without a co-signer, get married, work a full-time job for full-time pay and benefits, etc etc.
-
You have the right to still be called a teenager.

Anywy, umm I cant think of anything restricted to 21 and over except alcohol? And probably gambling?
-
Alcoholic products, car rentals, and (only in some states) gambling are the over-21 stuff that I can think of.
-
oooo car rentals... Lol. Being 18 feels weird. I also lose some of my rights as a minor :(
-
Minors have rights? Since when?

Minors can return whatever stuff they buy in whatever condition, for the full price, as long as it is unnecessary (this does not include food)

That is Wal-mart's general policy and applies to everyone. You don't even need a receipt.
-
You have the right to remain silent.......oh, wait....everyone has that right. :police:
Godspeed,

Actually, the car rental thing is normally 25 and older. Can't drive a 12-15 passenger van till then unless there's special insurance (at my church the age is 21)... idk.
