Do you think?


Question Posted Wednesday December 19 2007, 1:57 pm

Do you think 15 is young? If so why? How old do you really think they are? I'm asking this question because 18 19 year olds call me a little kid. I'm just trying to see how old I really am.

To me it is, but that is only because I'm nearly twice that age. There is a big difference in life experience between 15 years old and 30. Lot of growing up between those ages.

18 and 19 year olds see you as a kid because they are legal adults now. Makes them feel more adult to see you as a little kid.

There is nothing wrong with being young. I mean really, though I'm going to be 30 real soon, I still FEEL young. I'm a kid at heart. My 74 year old grandma was a kid at heart.

How old are you? You are 15 years old, but youth is what you make of it. I'm the type that wants to hold onto my youth. I may grow old physically, but that doesn't mean I have to mentally.

It's truly odd how we human beings work- we try so hard to be so grown up, and when we are grown up we try so hard to be so young.

Word of advice: No matter how old you are, no matter how old you get, don't kick that kid out of your heart. You will be thankful, and your kids will love it.

And enjoy being a kid.

You know, 15 is certainly young by my calcuations, because I'm in my fifties, so when I meet young kids, I am not concerned with how "old" they are, I am more interested in how "mature" they are for their age. Because being mature will serve you so much better in life than just getting older one day at a time. We all get older, no way to stop it, but there are some 40 somethings, who still act like teenagers. and teenagers who have their life together. Like do you know that getting an education is important to your future and will give you more choices and options and you'll earn more money and have more control. Do you also know and believe that drugs and alcohol are a dead end, and they could actually harm you or ruin your life. Indescriminate sex with many partners is also not a good idea, you could catch life threatening diseases, not to mention that it can break your heart. So do you use protection and do you get to know someone well before you get involved in an intimate relationship. These are all a sign of maturity, which I said can be so much more important than age. The 18 and 19 year olds that call you kids, they're just trying to feel older by calling you a kid. THey remember how they felt when they were 15, they hated it, and couldn't wait to get older. You'll get there too, maybe you'll have more sympathy for those kids you meet who are just 15. Good luck to you and I wish you well.

I'm 15 right now, and I think I'm still a kid, yet almost an adult. I think little kids are...well, little kids, toddlers and so forth. But take what the 18 and 19 year olds as a compliment, cause they are still kids themselves. Sometimes even adults act like kids. Just because they are past 18, doesn't make them an adult, they can just live on their own.
I would rather be a little kid than an adult anyway, we get to have fun, and not worry about too many things. Adults...work, jobs, bills, insurance, money, kids, so on and so forth...yeah

^^ You are as old as you want to be. How old you are is just how many years you have been on earth, your soul could be older or younger than you. And it doesn't matter what we think, cause it is you who has to be happy with yourself and what you think.

Hoped I helped! =D

TheAnnie answered Thursday December 20 2007, 12:34 pm:
i dont think you are young, but thats cause im almost 16 myself. i just think the older the person is are they younger you seem. like right now i think that junior high kids are small and cute but when i was one i thought i was big. its just perspective really
and dont take it so hard, ive had seniors say im such a cute little girl, but i know they dont mean anythig mean by it
consider it a conpliment because you still are young at heart while everyone is old, lol
