I don't accept the premise that everyone gets more conservative as they get older. That does not stand up to study as far as I am aware. Here are some example sources to back up this claim: 1 2.
By what measure or definition are you using the word "conservative" here? What is the cutoff for an "adult", is that the same as being able to vote or are you drawing an arbitrary line at an older age? Surely you are not suggesting that "almost every adult" is a GOP voter, because even Trump would not be so brazen as to pretend there are no Democrats at all!
I completely reject the equation of maturity with "conservative and traditional". This is just nonsense that reveals the magnitude of your bias. I am not going to argue that almost every adult is naturally more liberal or progressive, that is just absurd and has no basis at all in reality or facts.
