I grew up young.

Millitary

Kids

Wife

Everything that comes with the above.

I don't think i have all the answers, but i know i am more mature than the average 28 year old. I get along with people my dads age more than i do people my age or younger. I don't think im super smart or anything, i just had to grow up faster than most people, and i have a petty good handle on the world. Im sure there is plenty to learn still, and im not retarded enough to think i have all of the answers. I feel like i have more answers than most people. My dad has started comming to me for advice lol.

I know what you are talking about tho Wiccan. It's sad that people in our culture don't respect their elders like they use to. Now our elders are just 'old fucks', and not people to whom they would benifit listening to. Everyone learns the hard way these days, because in our culture youth is prized above experience. Im not talking about college, im talking about people out in the real world. Elders should be respected for their knowledge and maturity but most times they are looked upon as run-down and finished. It's backwards. I don't care if someone went to college or not, that doesn't make them smart. Living for 65 years deserves some respect, but young people almost never see it that way.

I think i went a bit off topic. Oh well.

I see people that are 40 hanging with kids that are only 20-25 alot, and the adults are trying their damnedest to come down to the kids level. It's fucked up. The kids should be trying to reach the adults, not the other way around. Youth should not be held so high.

I'm 44 and try to treat young people as I would anyone else. I don't try to come down to their level.

I have a friend who commented that his kids 17 & 19 really think I'm cool because I treat them like adults and don't talk down to them. He was treating them like they were still young teens. He talked to me about it and learned something.

I enjoy interacting with young people and offering advice when I can. A lot of people my age act like they have a foot in the grave and are really boring. They bitch about everything, drink every night and are always hung over. Not a good way to live. 

I will treat anyone on the boards as an adult unless they are acting like a 12 year old.

Thats really cool of you to treat everyone the same. I didn't mean older people shouldn't hang out with younger people at all, i just ment they shouldn't come down to their level and start acting immature just to fit in. It's cool to play around and hang out with people of all ages. I hang out with a kid that is 18. He is probably one of the most mature people i know lol. He teaches me alot about fixing cars. Without his help im sure i would have had to spend 2 grand to fix up my car, but with his help i have only spent like 300 bucks. I know he looks up to me for other things, so i treat him with respect and try to give him advice when he asks for it.

You were probably the same way, OP.

But still, I agree with the basis of your argument.

I gave up acting like a kid a long time ago.:shrug: On a side note, it is curious  how I've had to change my interactions with my young  relatives and their friends since they've reached the age of consent, especially those interested in my passions and hobbies. My 22 year old nephew introduced me to vaping after I introduced him to shrooms.Now he's trying to sell me life insurance:rotfl: . . . :peace:

Before the hatemail starts, let me explain.

Most of you are something like 18-25 now. Right now you feel you are on top of the world, and in many ways you may or may not be. But the point I try to make is: things change.

Remember yourself as 16. That was quite something, wasnt it? You really had the answers. But now look at yourself at 20 in comparison. Compared to being 20, that 16yo was a bit of a tard really. Didnt see the big picture quite from the perspective you have now at 20. Caught up in follies. Making some RETARDED decisions you would never think of making now.

This does not stop in adulthood.

Yeah, looking back is easy - but you can look ahead.

Ten years from now, you hopefully are much more evolved than you are now. You will look back at your current age, and see how you now are much more complex, balanced and a more complete whole. Looking back, your current self would be a bit of a dumbo, but not the out of control moron that you were years before that.

Life comes in stages, and as I see it there is a doubling of age involved that ushers in a new stage in life.

Watch this:

0-1
1-2
2-4
4-8
8-16
16-32
32-64
64-128

Each of these age groups have much in common, and are very different from the one before or after it.

For those younger than 32, you will go over a treshold around that age, into another phase of life, which is something you last did at age 16.

General trends are that you become more careful, more thoughtful and less extreme in your drug practices, unless you pick up a substance abuse problem along the way.

Don't become someone regretting some decisions earlier in life. Time will speed up as you age. Watch out with binge drug taking, and put off getting involved with addictive drugs, because the older you are when you start, the less likely you are to become addicted to em.

Live fast, die young is young people bullshit. Once you are older, you don't want to die, you want to chill on and on.  Dont be burdened by the physical and mental consequences of binge drinking and binge drugtaking you did at a younger age.

This goes especially for alcohol. You can do one, maybe two decades of serious drinking (and that passes like nothing, believe me), then consequences in your functioning start adding up, even when you stop you'll be permanently impaired.

Enjoy life, but all in good measure.

Consider yourself the judgement-impaired version of who you will be in 2020, and act accordingly.

Have fun :sun:




I'm not reading all these responses, as I'm sure you angered a lot of young people and inspired a bunch of rants like "you don't know me old man!", but personally I think this is a great topic and I agree with everything you said 100%.

Unless you're a complete and utter loser, you're constantly becoming a better, more streamlined version of yourself.

what is truly the funniest is now I have an even better understanding of what the system is and how to extricate myself from it. 

I thank Yah everyday for taking an interest in me and allowing me to see the exit.

Its strange the paths that led to my present stage "enlightenment".

give me two years and sayonara, unless of course I feel in two years there is a different path that is rather to be tred.


peace.
