general Do you ever sometimes miss being a child?

[Troblems 5,617]

Nah. I respect the responsibility I have as an adult, and find it far more freeing than the limitations I had as a kid. If I want to put off paying bills or doing laundry, I have to deal with those consequences, both personally and socially. I may now have a lower credit score, or stink, but they are choices I chose to make. As a kid I was told what to do, and when. So for me, no thanks. Not having boobs was nice though.

I miss when school didn’t cause me so much stress that my self esteem would always be so low.  Of course it’s not like that now but school just feels unhealthy now cause I’m always forcing myself to fit into a standard I can’t fit in.

I was a child? It feels like I've been an adult forever. 

I wasn't miserably depressed when I was kid, so...yeah, I miss it.

Still, I appreciate the freedoms of adulthood. There is little more satisfying than being allowed to say "no."

I was never much of a child even when I was a child. My dad says I went straight from cradle to adulthood. 

[Meson Bolt 2,648]

Yeah, definitely. I miss the biggest problem in my life being my older brother who used to pick on me.

Now my problems are a lot bigger. Trying to fight off debt, planning for the future, saving enough money to buy a car, existentialism... >.>;

Actually existentialism has been around for a while, so. :v

To be honest not really; at least, not now that i've experienced both. You just have so many more opportunities as an adult.

I'm still a kid inside and I think I always willbe.

I didn't enjoy being smacked about and not having money and only being able to go into the city centre once a year if I was lucky

plus I can at least vote and be all of 10% that vote against the government haha

[Clawdeen 14,646]

I miss not having bills to pay and not having to work.

[Savy 5,079]

I sure do miss not having  responsibilities, and all that stuff.

[ExplosionMare 18,065]

Yes, things were simpler then. I really like the friends I have now though, so I wouldn’t necessarily wanna go back

Aside from recently, that was when I was the happiest with my life.
