Nah my dad used to warn me all the time when I said I couldent wait to be an adult. He now tells me anytime i complain about how much being an adult sucks, "I tried to warn ya".

When i had my kid, they used to say they couldent wait to grow up, I told them to enjoy being a kid while they can cause being an adult while it has its perks, it fucking sucks. My kids 20 now, they will probably have the same cycle if they have kids.

Its just a vicious cycle

My son told me he wants to just fast forward until he’s done with school. I gave him some little “no you don’t, trust me. “ but then I went outside and cried. I had the same desire for 20 some years of my life, and it’s probably my largest regret in life.
