Would I like to be a child again? That is a beautiful question. There was a point in my life where I strongly felt that I had lost something. It haunted me. Later I realized that it was the innocence and freedom of childhood and that I could have it back. So I embarked on the road of being a "child" again. I regained the innocence by meditation and the transforming power that came through my relationship with Christ. He was the one who said, "Unless you become as a little child you will not be able to see/enter the kingdom of God." So I think that was the beginning point because I never would have thought I could return to child likeness. It's pure freedom. Children are free, simple and not caught up in unessentials. Yes, I love being a child again! And that feeling of having lost something is now gone. I feel whole again.

YES definitely, will even trade 5 years of my life for it. Reason being: if i know what i have become today. People always say and believe that childhood times is the best years of our lives. I believe that, do you? No worries, or should i say, worries about exams and curfews that parents imposed on us. A question to the one who ask this question, would you like to be a child again? But then again, the next stage of our life which i find closer to being a child is when you are about to kick the bucket.

Actually, no. Being a child was great but now I have all the freedoms of being an adult. I get to act like a kid when I play with my children. Sure the responsibilities of life can get overwhelming at times, but the important thing is to always be a child at heart.

yes and no. Yes, because i would love to wake up again and not have any adult responsibilities, such as a job, paying bills and dealing with life problems. No, because i would not want to have to go through the learning experiences i had to as a child, such as my dad dying.

God YES!
I miss the carefree ignorance of childhood the most, followed by no need of responsibility!
The funny part is, I remember not being able to wait to be "older." I think that old adage, "You always want what you can't have," is totally the truth!

Yes, I love being a kid. Everyday is just play, sleep and eat except that we have to go to school and bring back tons of homework. I'd rather go to school and play with friends then to go office and face some inconsiderate and uncooperative colleagues who smile in front of you but back stab you once you turn around.

No, I enjoyed being a child, but I appreciate all I have learned and I love being an adult.

No.
But then again if I could go back to my teens & do better in school & then college, well things would be much easier for me now I think.
