I'm not sure that statement is accurate. There are many adults who enjoy cartoons. In fact, some adults find references in them that a child might not entirely understand (the writers of these cartoons understand that parents will be in the audience, so some of the jokes are aimed more at the parents than at the kids). While the majority of adults may not necessarily watch cartoons that are aimed at little kids, classic cartoons like Looney Tunes are still entertaining, and many adults appreciate them.

In our culture, we expect adults to be "mature," and historically, cartoons have been considered something associated with children; thus, you may not hear a lot of adults admitting they still enjoy watching cartoons. On the other hand, the popularity of the Cartoon Network's evening programming ("Adult Swim") and programs like Family Guy and The Simpsons certainly show that adults do like to watch cartoons.
