Not allowed to grow up

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.

  • i think its opposite.... kids are being forced to grow up too fast.

    they are bombarded by sexual stuff early, i witnessed a kid at the end of primary school get pregnant... they are over sexualised, and also seem targeted with drugs and all want to copy degenerate adults and become alcoholics early on.

    i agree they have terrible role models and thats likely to blame for alot of it.

  • There is that, but overall the trend is to keep young men and women immature, and child-like. Just like in the Far East, Chinese Propaganda champions being childish.

  • It also means that by reason of an autism diagnosis, a person’s viewpoints on any issue can be invalidated and dismissed as in “know your place” or “be seen but not heard” and I sometimes wonder if that was behind the motivations of those pushing me towards an autism diagnosis in 2019
