The 90s..what Era were you born and what do you miss??

I miss being a kid. Saturday morning cartoons, bike riding, rollerblading, going to the mall with friends, football games, movie theaters, blockbuster, disney movies, Jerry springer/ Maury show(You are not the father), good music, nice fashion, Nintendo, Nick at night, Nickelodeon, Dial up, AOL, playing outside, computer games, feild day in gym class! Anything else I'm missing? Whats your favorite part of being a kid? What I would give to go back and be a kid again and be around family thats not here anymore. RIP Grandpa.

In reflection? Not a whole lot. I miss being able to eat certain foods which now make sick, but I prefer being an adult and I love having access to so much information at my fingertips. I love that when I have to wait at the chemist or the doctors I can just look for stuff to read on my phone. For instance I've been reading up on the lives of the Roman emperors, relearning all this stuff I've forgotten. As a kid I didn't have that and I was under the control of a pack of psycho lunatics (my family). They had the power of life and death over me, do you have any idea how terrifying that is? And if I want to enjoy stuff from the 90s I still can, like rugrats or catdog or playing outside or old computer games. I hated being a kid, especially at a time where I was suffering with a disorder that nobody even took seriously. The most common reaction to me having ADHD by parents, teachers and other adults was "YOU'RE NOT TRYING HARD ENOUGH!!! SIT STILL!!!". I don't have to worry about that anymore.
