Presbyterians typically do not wear crucifixes because they emphasize the resurrection of Christ rather than His crucifixion. The focus is on the belief in Jesus' victory over death, which is symbolized by the empty cross rather than the cross with Jesus' figure. This aligns with their theological understanding of salvation and the hope of eternal life. Consequently, the empty cross serves as a more fitting representation of their faith.

Do presbyterian were Baptist as adult?

Your question is unclear. If you meant, "Were Presbyterians Baptists before adulthood?" the answer is, "They could have been, but they don't have to have been." If you meant to say, "Are Presbyterians going to be Baptists as adults?" the answer is, "They might be, but they aren't definitely going to be." If you meant, "Do Presbyterians wear Baptist clothes?" I'm not sure what was going on in your mind, but "No." Others out there, feel free to edit this if you have a guess at what this person meant and have an answer for him or her.
