What really transforms us from being a well-meaning youngster to a confused, troubled and tensed adult?

one forgets childhood as one is faced with reality and different kind of problems. As a child the only problems at that time is when will one get to play or who to play with things evolved around play. Whereas Adults evolve around different sorts of problems around work, life, relationships, self. One tends to forget what fun was and is too worked up on what others think and how one sshould mold into that or perhaps mold them into higher beings which does not involve fun. One forgets what really happiness and peace was and thats just being happy with the self in whatever state it is in. But, if one chooses, to include a more meaningful life filed with a sense of fun it would be lighter load one would carry. Too many people in this world are wrapped up in ebing better than others and just forget the simple joy in life. In children, life is simple and they live it simply and in joy most of the time:)..even though too have temper tantrums but only for a little while. Adults sure can learn alot from children in terms of finding joy in simple things. One does not need money nor lots of friends to be happy.

Responsibility.
Life was easier as a child because your parents took responsibility for ensuring there was a roof over your head, food on the table, money to pay the bills, etc.
Now that you're an adult, you have to take responsibility for those things.

When you get older and life seems so difficult that's because you are growing up. Grown up people have to deal with real life indeed. Children don't deal with difficulties of life. Only mature adult do that. So this is why I guess.-

Lots of things
Responsability, more time in this world we become as troubled as the society and culture around us often, and we often feel we need to have an identity and not sure how to acheive that.
As children we are so much more based on our instincts rather than our thoughts, we see things in a different way and are often not afraid to express that, if we need to cry we cry, if we fall over while were learning to walk we get back up again, as adults we condem ourselves for failing or trying, and feel we are 'supposed' to be feeling what we are not because we learned a difference. If we are sad we should be happy, if we feel happy we try hard to hold on to it and make it tangable in some form, then all the confusion from the inbetween comes. I think things are more black and white when you are a child. And thats great!

Through out the life nobody cannot have fun, time will come for every person to think about their future,responsibilities, types of pains going to be faced,etc.In our Adult stage we cannot be imachured rite, as soon as we finished our U.G itself we will be worrying that what we going to do next, after when we getting the job there will be a tension that how we going to work, there will be a work pressure, family problem, financial situation
so there are lot of reasons to be in a confused, troubled and tensed adult.

I agree with you. Life was so much fun when we were small. There was joy in every little thing. Now there is responsibility. May be we lose our innocence as we grow up and become more materialistic.

Years of crummy thought habits. Getting way too serious about stuff that doesn't matter and ignoring things we shouldn't. The worrying, anxiety, and who knows what else, guilt, resentments, frustrations, self-demoralization's, yeah, they have something to do with it.

When we were young we had absolutely no responsibilities and cares .But as adults , we had to look afoter aourselves and after otheres who made usna whom we make in the couse of life .looking afer the parents is repayig the debt and looking after the children is the compnesation that we give to the society in return for the protection it offers to us.
So as adults we have duties and responsibilities along with our rights , whe as as children we had more of rights snd much less of responsibilities.
