People always tell me that I'm too young to know things about life ~ I'm 22, I work full-time, I pay my own bills, I go to school, and I have 2 children ~ sounds grown to me ~ I don't know

When I was 22, I thought I had all the answers.Little did I know I may have have had the answers;but the questions didn't match up.
When we are 22, most of us feel "grown".In actuality, we learn as we go.I made a few "snap" decisions that were in my best interest but I learned from them.Life is a learning process.

I definitely thought at 22 I was not only grown but had all the answers. But it's been many years since then and I actually think the older I get the less I know, and when I reflect back to how hip I thought I was at 22 if I could magically meet myself as a 22-year old I would be disgusted with who I was compared to who I am now. At 22 you really don't have a true perspective of what it will take to be able to retire early, etc. The nature of the 22 year-old beast is to by and large live in the moment, which, I guess beats living in the past!

When I was 22 I thought I knew everthing and was a little hardheaded. I was grown in a sense but really I had so much to learn especially about love and responsibility as I still wanted to party and hang out with my friends a lot.

I'm 22, married with two kids. I'm grown but have a lot to learn still. I don't know everything yet, let's face it I just graduated 5 years ago and got married four months after graduation. I have a lot of living yet to live and then maybe I'll learn everything I need to know. Everyday is a learning experience for me. But I am grown, I make all my own decisions and make all the decisions for two kids, I have to be grown.

Yes I did. I'm only 23 now but I thought I was grown long before I was 22. I don't think I know everything though. I know that I still have a lot to learn.

Yes, but then it seems to me my generation had to take on responsibilities at a much younger age than today's generation. That's not the fault of the young of today. It's just the evolution of our society. Twenty-two is a good age. You're finishing up your undergraduate work and possibly going on to work on your Master's. Or, you are venturing into the labor market or business. It's an exciting time. One filled with hopes and dreams. You're just sure you can save the world if given the opportunity. Yes, you're grown. Just barely, but you've arrived. Now, what are you going to do with your life?

Im 23 and I think that I am grown b/c i pay rent, bills and while paying to go to a 4 yr college. I don't know everything though, i still have a lot to learn, and alot of things are learned from living.

Not that I thought I knew everything but yeah, definitely "grown." Moving out of the house and supporting yourself at 18 will do that to you!

I'm 25, I am semi-grown. We all will be growing and maturing forever. At 22 I thought I was grown..and now at 25 I look back and think, oh I wasn't grown, but now I am...
And I bet in five years I'll think the same..

I knew that when I was 12 but forgot everything by 22.
