Yes and no. I definitely have moments I wish I could relive and the thought that it's over and will never be again saddens me. However, I love the fact that as an adult, you have so much more freedom and control over your own life. I think the responsibility that comes with it is a small price to pay.
I also don't miss school at all. 🤣 I was a very awkward kid who was very susceptible to bullying, and even had a few adults in my life (typically so-called "professionals" who worked with children for a living, mostly teachers 🤬) who engaged in it as well. Now that I have a say in whether or not I have to interact with those people and am not easily dominated by or scared of them (as there is no power imbalance anymore, which I'm sure they fed off of and is why they chose the career path they did despite appearing to hate children), life is so much better. I have no problem telling someone like that exactly what I think of them and to go to hell. 🤣
I do hate the fact that loved ones are getting older and as you age, you tend to experience more loss. I definitely worry more now than when I was younger, as I know anything can happen to anyone and nobody is immune to tragedy. I never thought about it as a kid.

I miss being 10 or younger. Lol basically Elementary school. It was so simple. Life was good. I am in middle school right now and I would go back in time in a heart beat! People don't kid, middle school SUCKS!
I was just thinking about how when I was a kid, bad things didn't seem as bad due to naivety, inexperience, etc. And I miss the feeling of thinking my parents know everything & have my best interests at heart. I think that level of trust is gone for good.
Yes I miss being a kid, here is me at age 6 months old

Haha. Lol I don't. I think as a kid, yes I had no responsibility, was blissful... but responsibility isn't necessarily bad and also I feel like I was not as conscious as I now. Yes this can be bad and good. But still, I like being able to be intelligent and knowing how to protect myself (to a degree) and maybe I even know how to enjoy life more.
i do. i just wish i could have appreciated it more. when i was young, all i thought about in my freetime is becoming a queen and growing up lol, and never enjoyed the moment.
Sure! Take me back to the 90's. I had fun in the early '00's tho too
Sometimes, but I enjoy my own freedom and money more
i miss the times before covid kicked in. i never actually got to enjoy middle school cos of that and tomorrow is the first day of 9th grade.
No, not really. I miss certain small parts of it, like how often you find people at the same stage of life, to make friends with and such. But in general, nah.
I do. Life was so much better and less stressful...
Not really. I had a rough upbringing. I am a child at heart, anyway.
Being a child was awful no money, no freedom/ independent and adults just took the fun out of living so no I don't miss that dreadful period in life.

I do miss when I could eat snacks all day... without a single worry, lol
Nostalgia is a bitch, especially when you're an adult and your life sucks completely.
