W Youth

7 days old, 10 years old, 17, 25....
At the end i understood that even if someone prefer being a child, someone else an adolescent, someone else a bit older....no one wants to become old U.U

Dear friends...sometimes i see my sister that is growing up so quickly more and more day by day..and i am so afraid of time. It never waits...goes on..
Do u agree with me?

Awaiting your answers :auto:
Greetings from Italy :hurray:

Once you get too old for it to be socially acceptable to play with toys, it's all downhill.

Yeah but at that age your parents are trying to discipline you and you have to be in bed at eight.

Also your never to old to play!!! I have star wars toys and I play with my son all the time, not with my SW toys but his toys.

No one should forget how to play, it's fun oh and jumping in puddles is so much fun

Yeah, but you don't know there is a life out of there. So you are happy of what u have.
ahaha i d like so much to see u playing with toys :p
When u grow old...toys are not so funny anymore..maybe because adults loose imagination, like Exupery in "the small prince" says.

I've been playing alot since Grandadhood struck. Yesterday I was the Big Bad Wolf, and had to chase them round the room until they jumped onto the sofa, which was "Den" and therefore inviolable. I was knackered.

Although I know these are my most precious years, I would still like to be 25 again.

Hi prendrelemick (or takethemick haha) what do you mean by Grandadhood struck and Den?

The concept of "Den" in children's games has been passed down for generations round here. It is a safe haven where you can't be caught by the Wolf or the person who is "It." You shout "Den" as you leap into it, and the chaser can't get you.

Becoming a Grandad, Your life is completely altered and shaken up.

I think 40's are the best years. The hard yards are done. One has put their naivety behind them too and has the benefit of hindsight and hopefully a little wisdom for their trouble.

This is beyond doubt the most sensible post on this thread.

I haven't experienced the 40s yet, but I have to admit I am looking forward to them. I like the thirties, since you experience so much domestic bliss- or more than you do without a kid. I think that the forties are a time when life can be very stable and you are done with all the BS and struggle of being young and trying to figure it out.

Yep that's it in a nutshell and if you haven't got it figured out by the age of forty, it's unlikely that you ever will and therefore remain a case of retarded development.

Of course it's also an age where you can go a little crazy....:devil:

I've only got two decades, that's not much to go on. Ask me again when I'm 80. I guess the people I'm most attracted to have always been in their mid to late thirties, maybe I'll like that age.

I haven't reached my favourite age yet. I'm 29 now so I'm thinking it might be somewhere in the mid thirties

Ay I think naivety is the word I was looking for I like to think I can hold on to that for a bit longer. Nothing wrong with being naive it is part of the innoncence within us all and it can be a nice thing if one is quikc witted clever as well as naive.:p

Thank you for explaining prendrelemick.
Is that what your avatar portrays a bit of both?
