What stories are you watching?!
Also, childhood is hard compared to being an adult?! Give me a break.
The entire point of the comic is trying to draw parallels, not dividers. Growing up has hardships, just like being grown up does. Trying to make one or the other seem easier or harder is a foolish and/or selfish endeavor. Theyre as different as they are similar, so trying to weigh them against each other is nothing but an ego-stroking contest.
Can’t have kids entering adulthood with any ideas about changing or helping the world. Much better for business if they give up all those hopes and just get a job.
Even if they did have ideas, there’s a good chance they’d still get pushed into a confined and dehumanizing existence.
When I was a kid I always told myself I’ll never become like most of the dumb adults around me.
I’m 26 now and I think I’m on the right path.
…or worse yet becoming evil in some way because you grew up.
YA novels are all this.
