What do you miss about your childhood?

I miss almost everything. But the things I miss the most are the freedom and my friends. I had spectacular friends when i was a kid. They were the best friends I ever had. I had a few really close friends later but not the same. I also really miss the freedom of childhood. Just being able to run around all day. The adventures, and staying outside all summer long.

 

Probably the freedom I had then, and the lack of worries and serious problems... I never had too many friends as a child, but they were good friends, and we had some wonderful adventures together.

 

I miss learning new things

we can still learn stuff everyday of our lives as we get older but its just not as fun as it was

 

i miss playing football under the street lights,...yip thats about all

 

Getting to play with the boys! none of my girl friends wanted to play in the mud or with tools. I also wish bugs were as interesting as they were then

 

Not giving a fuck about anything

 

and that to ofcoarse

 

Running barefoot out to the garden to pick at the wild raspberries dad grew and spoiling my dinner.
Having bets with my brother to see who could ride "mary the sheep" longer.
Running as fast as possible out of a field terrified because a bull you didn't know was there noticed you.

Wresting with my brother and really going 'all out' but never doing any damage.

Reading scary stories, then crawling into bed with my sister because I was sure some nasy monster was going to eat me in the middle of the night.

Finding something amazing every day, seeing something I'd never seen before or learning something new.

For every one thing I miss about my childhood, there's a dozen things I don't miss. But I miss some of the friends, some of the TV shows, some of the fun and games, and being able to eat a ton of food without gaining a pound.

Also, I can remember when there was more programming content than commercials on TV. There would be a few commercials every 15 minutes, then around late 80s to early 90s, they switched to every 10 minutes, and now there's a commercial break about every 4 minutes.

 

Yes they really are trying to force spam in ppls faces....

ITS QUITE SICKENING

 

no responsibilities, more room for errors lol

 

I miss the farm, the animals and the freedom from responsibility. I miss the fact that my parents were successful and we had no major financial troubles. I missed the brains they had to be successful. I'm a broke. Have not much motivation and live off the charity of my ex when not working.
I guess i miss things i will never have of my own. Having said that i wouldn't want the business stress my parents had to suffer to make us spoiled brats.

 

I miss remembering my childhood...

 

having some sense smacked into me
oh and family roadtrips, and even the parts when being humiliated in public.

 

Being naive and gullible.

 

I miss the freedom to do whatever the fuck I wanted. There was SO much time..... Was always skating, biking, building things, tinkering with mechanical things. Now I get an occasional chance to break my car or bike, but don't have all that hands on fun.

I miss looking forward to driving, and then when I started, how much fun it was. And after that, being able to take scenic drives, burn runs, etc. Now I have to drive hours a week, in the exact same path, and don't sleep for shit or have any recreation other than the internet. I no longer even have drugs, long a large recreational force in my life. Can't spend the time, money, or legal risk.

 

Being 3 feet tall was pretty cool, I guess.

 

What I miss in my childhood is that the only problems and worries I have is when I lose in a game, had a fight over toys and not liking the food, now I have problems in my family, relationship, etc.
I really miss my childhood wherein I never thought that life would be this hard and complicated

 

Sometimes i miss and wish i could be a child again period...
So carefree... my worse problem was a scraped knee..

 

My childhood wasn't to long ago i guess, but i miss it already.

The cartoons, elementry school, old friends, old houses (i've lived in many) having not a care in the world...

Everything used to seem so much more fun and exciting and new, school was fun, weekends were even more fun, and i had the craziest imagination ever. And most of all i miss playing all those little kid games outside with friends
