Not allowed to grow up

Desmond79

Does anyone else feel that our society doesn't want us to grow up, and take responsibilities?

Most of it is due to a lack of a positive Male Role Model in Kids' lives. Young boys aren't mentored. I know, from having my father killed in the troubles, that I tried too hard to impress adults; only to lack the follow-through after graduation.

But, ultimately, we miss the greatest Male Role Model in our society. Jesus. We thought we didn't need faith, and now kids are growing up with no sense of direction.

  • society? No. My parents when I was younger. yep. I can certainly see that. a lot of autistic kids get over protected. Also you get them wanting you to take the responsibilities of growing up but not the freedoms. I think most kids get that to some degree. But autistic kids tend to get it worse.
