Question about my thoughts(rant)?

i am almost 21 there are sometimes i wish i could act more like an adult ';should'; but at the same time i would like to go back to being a kid. i never had a father/father figure and sometimes i wish i could go back to being a kid and have a dad to show/ do ';fatherly activity's'; with me and to teach me things some that might help me now.

Every man has immature thoughts its the child in us all.





What you need to do is recognize situations where you need to behave like an adult.





You're no different from the rest of us.





Im 36 and still do childish things but i know when i need to be mature.





It will come in time.Question about my thoughts(rant)?
Your afraid that you won't be excepted is your fear! ';I've been there! But i have always been true to myself and that's all that should matter my friend! That's the age you discover the downhill sparrow and if you don't life it responsibly it will cripple or kill you! Anymore qeustions?
i'm 22 and still get called a kid. it sucks but don't let it get to ya, we all have childish moments. as long as you're responsible when you have to be it'll be alright
I think you will do just fine. The fact that you are conscious of these attributes puts you leaps and bounds above allot of your peers. I too just recently became an adult... I'm gonna be 37!
i understand. I wish i could be a kid again too. So many things i wish i could change. I feel like i missed out on high school. My parents would not let me go to public school and i could not stand the private school any more so i got an internship at 16, and stopped school. During that time i also got involved with a rough crowd, then went to college, lived wild, then had a baby, and life got even crazier. Sometimes i wish i could go back to high school and be like a ';normal'; teenager, attend prom, play sports - normal American youth experience. And sometimes i imagine i had a different past and a different dad. I miss being a kid. It was fun. I was so carefree. I had feelings of not being sure of who i was, not sure who others thought i was, and how i presented myself to the world. I was a teen, and in my early twenties is when i struggled with confusion.





I am just now coming to grips with everything and feel great about myself. I still feel like a kid but that is good. It is good to have youthful qualities. You become an adult in time. Your character grows and you grow up. But you can have many sides to yourself. I am 26. I am using my experiences for good. It is hard. I am still learning. Just be patient with yourself. One piece of advise that will help from delays id to be careful about drinking and any kind of substances to mask your feelings. It won't help. It will only delay your growth. Your feelings have to be dealt with eventually. And be weary of the company you keep. Don't hang out with people you don't feel comfortable and at home with. Have high standards, and be confident in yourself. Find who you are and be happy. You won't be able to take off your mask until you figure out who you are yourself. Best wishes.
To grow up and mature is a term like love it comes to mean something entirely different for each one of us with some similarities. At the basic level you start out needing someone to do everything for you. Slowly you begin to take responsibility for yourself. After doing the things that sustain life. Learning to walk or become mobile, communicate, feed, sleep entertain yourself next you begin lessons in a way to financially sustain yourself, once you have accomplished gainful employment you can begin to reach out to others by marriage, children community.





You never know how long each step will take or what obstacles will block your path.





In a 20 year old I wonder if you are referring to finding gainful employment that is causing you to feel inadequate. Or finding someone to love you so you can now reach out. Either way some never achieve everything.





What I am trying to say is your age does not determine how you should act. It is more based on the obstacles blocking you from caring for yourself.





Identify any obstacles and begin to tackle them.
