Is it normal i wanted to do a lot of “adult things” when i was 10 years old?
I know the first thing a lot of you are thinking when you see “adult things” is sex, and while that was a part of it, it’s not the only thing. I wanted to drive a car, own a house, and have a job, all at the age of 10, and didn’t understand why I had to be older to do those things, so I chalked it up to some type of prejudice.
Now I’m almost 21, and I understand a bit more about brain development and things like that, but I still think that kids aren’t as stupid as people think (some of them anyway) and I’m mad at myself for having been lazy and not at least TRYING to do more things on my own to prove to adults that I was more capable than they thought, but there’s nothing I can do about that now.
