When does a child account change to an adult one?

I have a child who is 17 and under the child account banner. Just for curiosity's sake, when will his account become an 'adult' account.

Approve what kids buy with Ask to Buy - Apple Support


"Who can use Ask to Buy

Families can use Ask to Buy after they set up Family Sharing. The family organizer can turn on Ask to Buy for any family member who isn't an adult. It's on by default for any children under 13. You'll be asked to set up Ask to Buy when you invite anyone under 18 to your family group.1

If a family member turns 18 and the family organizer turns off Ask to Buy, the family organizer can't turn it on again."
