A kid - things were so simple in those days, but I would like to have the knowledge to be able to enjoy it and not take it for granted.

That is a tough question to answer.
When you think of being a kid you remember all the good times, like playing hide and seek, laughing to no end, skipping rocks, playing four square, and truth or dare.
And when you think of being an adult you see all the bad things that we are forced to endure, jobs, having kids (well for women), raising kids, mortgage, car note, and bills, bills, bills.
But when you really think about it at least as an adult you have control over your life. There is a lot more pain and responsibility to it but to not have full control over you life isn't very fun.
When you are a kid you have to remember the early bedtimes, the yucky food you were forced to eat, no phone calls after 9, no freedom.
So I would rather be an adult. Being a kid just isn't something I wanna relive. I always say I worked to hard to get this grown so I don't wanna go back. LOL.

It's better to be an adult than a kid. Kids have no control over what happens to them and are completely reliant on adults. That's okay if you're in a good situation, but that's rarely the case.

No, it's because I'm a 'kid' (14 soon 15), noone respects your opinion, trust me..I'm quite intelligent because I get enough attention from the right people, but because half the kids these days are roaming the streets with weapons, people are afraid and pretty much hate them.
So I'd rather be an adult ty ;)

I'd rather be an adult who acts like a kid and not get arrested!

Well I enjoyed being a kid so much, I kinda never grew up. What's good about being an adult?

Growing old/getting old kinda sucks, but overall I'd rather be an adult. I can buy all kinds of alcohol, get rental cars, eat whatever and whenever I want, and noone tells me to not jump on the bed.

I'd wish to be an adult, but be able to laugh at little things and be carefree like a kid.

No I may not have enjoyed every stage of my life but I am almost 50 and would not go back to being a kid for anything.

No......I love being an adult........I can make my own decisions and have the ability to do anything I want.......I realize that if I choose to do certain things there will be consequences, but if I just live a normal life I will succeed and have a great life........
