👉 Estivation is a type of cultural phenomenon in which individuals, especially children, engage in activities or behaviors that are considered inappropriate for their age and maturity level. These activities may range from playing with unhygienic toys to engaging in risky behavior such as drinking alcohol excessively or engaging in illegal activities. Estivation can be seen as a form of adolescent rebellion against societal norms and expectations, often motivated by an underlying sense of alienation or dissatisfaction with one's life circumstances.
