Because the problems you had in your life made you have to grow up quick?

Yes.
But thats okay because I consider it all an experience. I learned the value of a dollar very quickly. And I learned true lessons in life a lot faster than most peers my age growing up. It helped me to get a better perspective of life and how it wont always be all rainbows and sunshine. That's why on those sunny days, I took them for granted because I knew the next day was never promised to be as good as the last. Plus, it's so much easier to relate to someone going through hard times. Being able to give advice to those who are younger than me and are going through similar experiences makes me feel like I am making a positive difference-even if it is just one person listening.
I am a young adult now. But lemme tell you. I never take life serious and I love being just me and taking in the good with the bad-no matter what happens next. =)
You have the rest of your life to live. Why be consumed with anger and sadness? Do what makes you feel good.
Take care...

No, I had a good family life and a great childhood, but I've been an adult longer than I was a child because I had to be an adult at 18 (I left the country for a year) and that was 20 years ago.

"Were you an adult longer than you were a kid?" -- Yes, definitely, 20 as a kid + 34 (so far) as an adult.
"Because the problems you had in your life made you have to grow up quick?" -- No, because I've lived longer as an adult than I did as a kid.

Yes, there were problems in my childhood, more than I care to remember so right about now, I'm living the childhood I never had along with the toys that go with it.
I still have my memory and such so I wouldn't exactly call it a second childhood but there's this song that pretty much explains where I am, it goes, I had the time of my life...
-btw, great question.

WERE? That implies I am at the end of my life... I'm not, and no. As a child I was forced to live as an adult, so once I got out I experienced childhood, though not in a childish, blame-everyone-for-my-problems sort of way.

When I was 19, and I did not go along with my parents rules, I packed my bag and said good-bye. I struggled from the bottom up, but it was all worth it, as I had to work to eat, and have a roof over me, and I learned at that age that nothing is free, you have to work for it, and well, I did, and I am so thankful that I ended up living in Hawaii, owning a home, married to a awesome woman, and life is good,all because I worked for it ,starting at an early age.

Longer.. I had a lot of problems as a teen. More problems than an adult would have actually gone through.

Yup and I'm still an adult and hope to be at least for a while longer. My childhood stopped at 11.

I never had any problems in my life, but I stopped hanging around children of my own age very early. So... I spent more time being an adult.
