Same. And I was (still am!) good and trustworthy, so my parents never really had to slap me with a bunch of restrictions.

I don't get the correlation here. I was a good kid who never got in trouble. That's independent of dreaming about what I would be and do when I grew up.smiley: laugh

I'm more talking about kids who were eager to grow up so that they no longer had to answer to their parents, had to abide by curfew, etc. I'd spend time thinking about what I wanted to be when I grew up, but I wouldn't say that I "couldn't wait" for it, or felt any need to hurry up and be "grown" because of it. I enjoyed being a kid, when I was a kid.
