Maturity

Is there actually any way to measure maturity? When you say that someone is "immature" what are you measuring them against? Yourself? The others around you? Younger people? The people whom they spend their time with? Who or what is the actual standard of maturity for an age? But, doesn't the same question apply to whoever you're comparing them to? I mean, is your standard actually living up to THE standard?

I suppose the real questions are What can you really expect from people? What is acceptable?
