How's come people tell you to stay a kid for as long as you can. Yet the moment you do anything childish or immature they tell you to grow up.

We all see those 12-year-old girls with clown make-up on with high heels. Lost of kids wanna act older than they are which brings in a lot of unnecessary stress and drama. Same goes with some teenagers getting a job right when they turn 16. Getting a job is fine, it shows responsibility but alot of time it cuts into their social life and school work.
And when they tell you to stay young as long as you can they don't mean act like a 5-year-old. You're still expected to act your age, just not older and taking on too much responsibilities or trying to act/look older. [ orphans's advice column | Ask orphans A Question ]

When you're an adult and you do something immature, you should know better.
Being told to stay a kid for as long as you can is a figure of speech. Obviously you can't really do that. Probably just means enjoy it while it lasts, as things get a lot harder after. [ thelaura's advice column | Ask thelaura A Question ]
