English teacher said I have to write essay. I thought it turned out well enough to share here.
I think most of us have faced the problem of growing up and taking responsibilities. Also, all people have thought about it at least once in the life.
Childhood - it’s time when you grow up near to your family or close people discovering the world by physical and emotional side. Adulthood - on the contrary, is a time when you have to be brave and decisive with difficulties on your own way.
I think main privilege in childhood is a freedom. You are free of work, taxes or rent payments. You can do whatever you want - play games, watch cartoons, become a pirate or princess, draw with pens on your body. You are able for everything (or almost everything).
Also some perks of childhood - is carefree, the possibility of making mistakes and more choice. Drawback - many things are not allowed to you because you are child.
And now! What’s the real pluses of adulthood?
Of course, there are many of them - freedom, the responsibility only for your life, the possibility to do business the way you want, independence and another adult stuff. Downside of adulthood is - too much responsibilities, work and most of time you have to learn things by your own.
What about me… I guess, I prefer adult life style. It’s always been more close to me. I remember, when I was a child I always dreamed about to grow up faster - to be mature, independent and serious woman.
For now, I’m an adult 23 years old girl. I like to be who I am. I like to take responsibilities for myself, I like to live and cook alone. Time to time I struggle with some snags and then I wish I could be child again. But all the time when everything is all right with me - I’m so happy being in my age.
Summing up the results, I could say that nothing is better.
We can’t always stay a child or we can’t always like to be an adult. I think the main thing is if you live your life as you really want to live. If you make choices relying yourself and your own values. Follow it and you will never regret and think about where was better - in childhood or adulthood.
