Adultification is when groups of minority children are treated as more mature than lighter skinned children. it stems from a racial bias and negative stereotype of minority groups. This view is usually projected onto young African American girls, people thinking they don't need as much comfort, security, and love as white or lighter skinned children, and that African American girls know more about adult topics, are more mature, and know more about sex.
Adultification is seen heavily in media, African American girls and women being seen as more sassy, mature, aggressive, and/or provocative, this can also be (sadly) applied to other minority groups.

Chloe from Hey Arnold! Is an example of adultification. She uses someone just to get closer to her crush and takes advantage of the person because he has a crush on her. Along with that, she also dresses like she's 15-19. Despite all this, she is only 13 years old.

Get the adult swim mug.When you buy a car that you cant afford.
When you invite the neighbours round and then upset all of them by just being you.
When it seems like a good idea to call in sick because you've 'had a death in the family'
When you're sat by the loo because cleaning up sick from the floor doesnt seem exciting. Plus the cleaner (your mom) ain't coming for 2 weeks.
When everyone looks 28 and that's young.
When you can afford to buy 3 for 100.
When all you wanna do is forget the day before.

Perhaps one of the few times where a woman is seeking sex for a purely physical need (like men) rather than for an emotional or spiritual connection.

After years of having Jeff lie on top of her, Nicole started to see that being an adulteress might be a way of finally having an orgasm.
