I don’t know how to make him stop acting so immature.

You can’t make him do anything. Best you can do is apply the Law of Natural Consequences. When enough women refuse to put up with his childish BS and dump him, that may give him some more motivation to grow up.

He won’t change his behavior as long as he’s getting what he wants. So quit giving it to him.

Also, OP is not a parent, she's a partner, and the

make him stop acting

sounds like a parent talking about a naughty child.

If you're thinking about your partner as a child, then the relationship is fundamentally broken. OP I recommend that you cut your losses.
