Read a book a while ago, don't remember the title- It's around here somewhere- explaining the science/psychology behind "adolescence".

Used to be childhood>adulthood.
Then childhood>short adolescence>adulthood
And now the period of adolescence is getting longer.

Your premise is correct. I'd have to dig out the book to give its reasons why.
