I might not have been in such a rush to “grow up” and “be on my own.”
Isn’t it ironic how fast kids want to look older and “more grown up” and are anxious to become legal adults and be their “own boss,” and once they actually DO grow up they start to realize that being an adult really is not as much fun as they imagined it would be?
So many decisions, so many responsibilities, and not being able to run to their parents to “fix” whatever the problem of the month might be. Although I married at an older age than my sisters, and my girlfriends, if I knew THEN what I know NOW I might have been a whole lot slower to get married at all.
