I am often annoyed when people think young adults are not very wise.
I am often annoyed when people think others do not have the same "wisdom" they have.
First, if someone is expressing that they have more wisdom, do they really have more wisdom?
Second, what is the measure of someone that is wise and not?
Yes, teens make bad decision. Young adults make bad decisions. Older people make bad decisions. So if we all make bad decisions this only means that we all make good decisions.
You are surrounded by wise people, but you may not be one of the wise according to "others" standard, but measure wisdom by the "breath of the Almighty that has been given to a man."
Consider the words from Job 32:6-9
"I am young in years,
and you are old;
that is why I was fearful,
not daring to tell you what I know.
I thought, 'Age should speak;
advanced years should teach wisdom.'
But it is the spirit in a man,
the breath of the Almighty, that gives him understanding.
It is not only the old who are wise,
not only the aged who understand what is right."
Stop being fearful and know that God has breathed a spirit of humble boldness.
