Detailed explanation-1: -Legally, the term child may refer to anyone below the age of majority or some other age limit. The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child defines child as, “A human being below the age of 18 years unless under the law applicable to the child, majority is attained earlier.”
Detailed explanation-2: -Kids between 8 and 12 are called “tweens” because they are in between children and teenagers. It’s very normal for kids this age to start to move from being very close to parents to wanting to be more independent. But they still need a lot of help from their parents.
Detailed explanation-3: -Teenagers who are between 13 and 17 years old are considered both children and teenagers in most countries. Teenagers who are 18 and 19 years old may be regarded as both teenagers and adults. The way the word is used varies. Some societies have rites of passage to mark the change from childhood to adulthood.
