This is not a consequence of a viral manipulation but rather mind control coupled with long-term genetic corruption done by extraterrestrial tinkering with your DNA, much done simply to see what happens, as the agenda is to learn about the human genome in order to exploit and diminish you, not help humanity. The recent era is an interesting contrast to prior history, where life was short and brutal, typically. People needed to grow up in a hurry because they were expected to become self-sustaining by the time they were teenagers. So they were not only expected to emulate adults but needed to in order to compete and fit in with the adult world as soon as they could and it was often a matter of survival. One of the ongoing corruptions of the interlopers has been to manipulate human culture through gifting various technologies, simply to add some variety in what takes place, because those very technologies are corrupted in ways to make them ultimately destructive.
In the meantime, the combination of having many technological adjuncts, to reduce the need for physical labor by humans, creates an opportunity for many to have a relatively easy lifestyle in the many countries enjoying relative affluence. The increased automation works against society by reducing the need for human workers and people are increasingly finding themselves sidelined by life, and that will only increase through the advent of artificial intelligence. This has led to the modern phenomenon of children living in their parents' homes even into middle age, so there is much less independent thinking and toughening up provided by society with the indulging of the young, and that is a kind of enabling to diminish them. So this is more a cultural phenomenon imparted by a sinister manipulation creating this striking difference in seeming maturity of young people in a past era compared to the current population.
