Young people may feel that adults have more freedom. However, the grass is not always greener on the adult side of the fence.
After all when you’re young, you can sometimes focus on what you are not old enough to do. You can’t wait to be the legal age to drive a car, or have your own place and make decisions about your life.
Growing up is a trap because although it sounds magical to make decisions for yourself and have the ability to do whatever you want (i.e. parents no longer telling you what to do), that responsibility can be stressful.
As a result Adults have to pay bills and work to afford their lifestyle in addition to potentially providing for and taking care of children.
