While age might not guarentee maturity, there is at least the stereotype that older people are, on AVERAGE, more mature. I'd expect that this is in fact true. The problem with statistics is that it tells you a lot about a very large group and nothing about the individuals or even sub-groups. It's also hard to say if the increase in average maturity is really that significant or not.
