“Adults are only obsolete children.”
Dr. Seuss
No matter how grown up we think we are the
truth is brought out at Christmas time…adults are just old children.
I didn’t much like being a kid, I wasn’t very good at being a young adult and being an old lady is just an ugly thought I want no part of at all! So, I am quite happy to be an old child.
What about you?
I will choose and old child and be so very happy!
I am happy as an old kid. Beats being an old biddy.
Yes, I’m an obsolete child. I’ve just had a birthday to prove it.
Obsolete children unite! There are many of us…we could start something.
Oh, indeed. My Inner Child rails against preconceived notions about behaviours for those of a certain age. That is why I love the poem, “Warning”. by Jenny Joseph. And, I have begun to wear purple.
Good for you! I wear purple now that I have gray hair…didn’t look too good when my hair was auburn. There are a lot of “preconceived notions” when it comes to older folks, especially older women.
please notice the name of the blog….it is Obsolete childhood for a darned good reason! lol

I’ll never grow up either. I’m good with that. I’m 66 years old and I’m really about 12.
Have a fabulous day. Scritches to the kitty. ♥
I am older than you in actual years but I think I am only about 10 otherwise.
I totally agree with you! I love your idea.

I am very childlike about certain things, especially Christmas! Here’s to retaining a little bit of joy and wonder in the small things. Because being happy about the little things helps us endure the bad stuff.! Merry Christmas!!🎄🎁
You are right! Must not let the bad stuff get the upper hand.

I believe childhood is wasted on kids…… I’m with you.
If only kids could know now what they will know in the future they would be happier.
