Which is better - being a kid or being an adult?

BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
Being an adult is a lot of fun but it leaves you missing being a kid. It's a hard choice, the freedoms and liberties of adulthood, even as early as adolescence, are very rewarding and enjoyable. But there's a certain something about childhood, almost like a lack of higher self awareness, that makes it so special. Things make less sense, they're more exciting because you haven't experienced them before, humor is different, fear is different, interpersonal interaction is different. I miss being a child, and I still fee like one both emotionally and psychologically.

@BlueMetalChick I think childhood is supposed to be the best time in my our lives. Everything is new and exciting to us and we are fearless and don’t have to worry about anything
SW-User
An adult, but one who never forgets to embrace the qualities that made being a kid fun - curiosity, seeing the possibility for fun in life’s simplest pleasures, letting go and just being in the moment, embracing fun with friends.
SW-User
@SW-User I think you are 😊
SW-User
@SW-User Thank you. 🤗

Adult for sure. There were way too many restrictions as a kid.
SW-User
@SimplyTracie Precisely!
Peaceful · F
An adult with childlike curiosity.
SW-User
@Peaceful Sounds like who I’m becoming lol
Peaceful · F
@SW-User that's a great thing! Never let it go.
SW-User
@Peaceful I won’t 😊
Being an adult. Although it can be a lot more stressful and there are expectations and responsibilities involved. There’s a lot more freedom, independence, and so much more to experience that you’re not really able to experience until you’re an adult. I’d say being a kid is “easier” but not better.
@SW-User Yup, easier isn’t always better. 🙂
SW-User
@Stark If it’s harder, it definitely guarantees better rewards
@Stark I agree with that alot of people confuse easy with being better but its not, especially if you were stuck being verbally abused like i was, heavily bullied in school, always feel like you dont matter around your peers and you dont get a chance to make friends.
im peter pan i get best of both worlds lol

The freedom you get from reaching adulthood can not be matched!
SW-User
@wstcstrob Yesss!! 👍 I agree with that
Reject · 26-30, M
If I had to pick one I'd choose adult. Kids have the better life, but the limits aren't fun.
SW-User
@Reject I’ve been a victim of it on multiple occasions lol
Reject · 26-30, M
@SW-User I can imagine. I respect you for who you are Alex. 💓
SW-User
@Reject Thank you 😊
SW-User
Kid. Shit's free.
SW-User
@SW-User I already am one. :b
SW-User
@SW-User Oh I was being silly 😆
SW-User
@SW-User I know. :b
SW-User
Ignorance is bliss as a child, but through experience comes passion from living and going through things. Like writing lyrics, i can write things with real meaning that i could never write as a child and although it's nice to feel free in that sense being young, there's an intangible freedom that also comes with expression.
SW-User
@Gh0s1 Well said. I definitely like being adult and the life experience that comes with it better
@SW-User Totally, the process of finding yourself and enjoying who you've become is a special journey in itself.
SW-User
@Gh0s1 Yes! You learn to appreciate life more when you grow up
SW-User
Being both. Somehow
SW-User
@SapphicHeart I believe it’s still kept inside me 😬
@SW-User
I love your inner child as much as your adorable adult. It's a mesmerizing combination. 😍
SW-User
@SW-User I love that combination
SW-User
Adult responsibilities are exhausting sometimes.
Kids get to ignore much of that.

Kids have fun. Adults have anxiety..

Like the song says, Hang on to sixteen as long as you can, changes come around real soon, make us women and men..
SW-User
@SW-User Who says adults don’t have fun? 😏
Deadcutie · 18-21, F
How about a adult that’s still young enough to be a kid? Best of both worlds
SW-User
@Girlyfriendcollecting Did I say it was good? And I’m sorry you had rough adolescent years.
Deadcutie · 18-21, F
@Girlyfriendcollecting your shitty teen years have no relevance to my teen experience which I thoroughly enjoyed
SW-User
@Deadcutie Slayyyy 😆
SW-User
Kid. Barely any responsibilities, everything is paid for and there’s no sexual angle to everything the way it is for adults.
SW-User
@SW-User 😂 I think it’s only huge responsibilities when you’re taking care of someone else as well.
SW-User
@SW-User True, but I guess one’s perspective of responsibility depends a lot on their upbringing; to me having a job is a huge responsibility, there are no vacations like school 🙈
SW-User
@SW-User And here I am longing to get out of school and get a job 😂
SW-User
Being a big kid 😛
SW-User
@SW-User It's going to happen on another post if you eat all the bean salad and tell me how the wedding singer ends 😏
SW-User
@SW-User That should be easy 😏
SW-User
@SW-User 😛
Arorin · M
A kid for sure, no bills...
Arorin · M
@SW-User I am just saying that my worries as an adult are greater than my worries as a kid 🤣
SW-User
@Arorin I was playing with you 😜
Arorin · M
And I'm just playing back 😋

@kingkyri Yes! So you can retire young and rich lol
SW-User
A child, love not worrying much, daydreaming and playing. Also it's easier to make friends.
SW-User
@SW-User Good point. Life is easier as a kid
Sharky86 · 36-40, M
SW-User
@Sharky86 But you’re more mature and able to deal with life better
Sharky86 · 36-40, M
@SW-User Depending of the life you live... When you're a kid you can enjoy life with a very little, you just need a small sparkle of happiness and love from others, growing up you need more and more and you often can't have it.
SW-User
@Sharky86 True. Being a kid is easier
Cierzo · M
Being a kid. You live in the present.
SW-User
@Cierzo But then you’ll never know your future...
Cierzo · M
@SW-User Future does not exist until it becomes present.
SW-User
@Cierzo But the new present depends on the future
okaybut · 56-60, M
Depends...in relation to chocolate??
SW-User
@okaybut Chocolate is for all ages 😜
okaybut · 56-60, M

SW-User
@okaybut 😘
Wishingwellguy · 46-50, M

Noblety · M
