Childhood is the best time of my life. Freedom is one of the major aspects of childhood and adulthood, but which is better? When you were a child you could frolic around minding your own business, but when youre an adult you have boundries. Responsibility, childhood has many responsibilities, cleaning your room making your bed all takes time and energy, adulthood has many responsibilities and they very much sound harder than childhood, like paying bills etc. having Rights; obviously adults have more rights than children, but do children really need those rights?
When you are child your freedom is limited. Most of your freedom depends mostly on your parents mood at that time, until you turn 18 you belong to your parents. Some examples of the limited freedom we face in childhood is the curfew, where you have to be home at 9:00pm and my personal favourite; no TV until youve cleaned your room!, both being harsh and limiting our freedom instead of doing what we like. Adults on the other hand, who are over the age of 18, legally can do what their parents can do, no more curfew no more allowance, but you have to earn your own money and work to get your self to a point in life where you are in control of your self, this including cleaning or leaving your room as it is. Even though adults have more freedom, I believe childhood has the best freedom (of choice) for our age group.
Responsibilities, childhood has many responsibilities, some we like, some we have to do and some we despise. Responsibilities some of us enjoy doing is homework. We get a sense of pleasure after finishing a piece of work that we have done to the best of our ability. Cleaning our rooms is a responsibility we must do both for hygienic and ,if I dont I will get punished, reasons. A responsibility we despise doing is anything that clashes with our free/play time. These are just some of the things in childhood
