The article challenges the common notion that there is a midlife crisis that many adults experience in their 40s and 50s. It argues that research does not support the idea of a universal midlife crisis, and that feelings of discontent at midlife may be a normal part of development rather than a "crisis." The concept of a midlife crisis may be an overgeneralization that does not apply to all adults and their experiences during middle age.
