Far from being adolescent, they are somehow able to hold on to that part of being a kid that made life so much fun.

Interesting observation.

My son (38 years old married with a daughter) said the other day that he had had fun growing up and was missing that.

He was kind of sad about that, wondering what might be different, and would he get that kind of fun back.

It shouldn’t HAVE TO all go.

My guitar playing, my drum playing, someone’s favorite video game, their favorite band...growing up doesn’t have to mean growing weary and wary all the time.

My brother, an attorney, CAN’T NAME a Zeppelin song and he introduced them to me at the ripe age of 10!!

I love him but he thinks showing ANY signs of youthful fun is a disease.

I blame his big spending wife :(

But then he could have put his foot down.

Boy did I digress lol!!

There are very few things that I miss from childhood- it was a nightmare.

But things that kids do are fun to me, pushing 50, I climb trees, investigate/explore/experiment/dream and play as I once did.

Over time, there are less and less people with which to 'play'. Luckily for me, my Daughter & I go on adventures together and 'investigate' things that pique our curiosity.

"Would he get that kind of fun back"

Hunting, fishing & camping and take your kids with you.
