Why do adults wanna be kids again?

I just turned 18! I'm living life!
My dad and brothers said "Oh you just wait. The adult life won't be like you expect. Bills, mortgage, dealing with the government, adult issures, going to doctors more, dealing with marriage/relationships, kids, and time flies and you'll be 40 before you know it. Adulting isn't fun. The world is more brutal to adults than children. You had your childhood and you're not a kid anymore."
Great....now I'm having second thoughts. I'm going to college next month and my cousin said college is different from high school and you'll be on your own. I'm cool with that. Teachers won't be on me all the time. Can't wait to party!

College isnt being an adult. College is school. It isnt the real world by a long shot.

Now [i]actual[/i] adulting isnt that bad at all if you do it right. Avoid debt, choose a career path that will stay relevant and has advancement opportunities, avoid creating/attracting dependents, and really it's not bad at all.

All these people who say it suck more than likely did it wrong.
