groanup 

An unmotivated adult --- usually at least somewhat out-of-shape physically --- who wheezingly/gruntingly shirks his basic duties, especially when it comes to caring for young children.

Every time we have a family get-together, my parents always assign some groanup --- an aunt, uncle, grandparent --- to "look after" me, but all that person usually does is either moan about being too weak/tired/ignorant to help me with whatever question/problem I come to him about, or pretend to never understand what it is that I want.

Buying a home is a sign that you have reached grownuppity.

real grownup job 

A form of employment which pays well enough that the employee is mostly if not completely fiscally self-sufficient.

A real grownup job often but not necessarily requires postsecondary education and a 40+ hour work week. It may or may not involve working in an office, and may or may not be enjoyable or fulfilling. The primary qualification is that the job pays well enough for a responsible adult to live in a reasonably modest but comfortable manner with little or no outside help, be it in the form of a second job, trust fund or other form of mooching.

"Dude, I'm getting pretty fucking sick of being a broke ass college kid. I need a real grownup job."

Grownupness 

When you give an older kid between 8 and 15 some responsibility to look after their own money or to walk to the shop alone, this gives them a feeling of grownupness

I'm going to give John his own wallet with his own cash so he's got that grownupness feeling,

Did you like that grownupness when I let you go to the shop on your own?
