My daughter had her lovely long hair cut off yesterday. She's had a trendy hairstyle that makes her look so much older (she's 16). She brought home the ponytail that they cut off. I remember doing the very same thing myself and feeling very grown up. Many years later and I know I hadn't, then. I still do things that aren't very 'grown-up', but I blame the fact that I'm with children all day!
My question: how do you know when you've grown up?
I'll never know. I'm more grown up now than I was say 10 years ago, but there will always be some residual "kid" in me I suppose....
someone mentioned something similar recently in here. personally i think i grew up to early and im now in regression.
or is that just a mid life thingy :giggle:
we all have an inner child. My daughter goes mad coz she says I show her up :shock:
Is it me that only does the singing n dancing in the rain :giggle:
we never grow up
if we did we would be fed up all the time...........
I feel like a grown up but im doing my best to fight it off. But having a mortgage and the occasional attack of broodyness (when I visit my friends and there cute as a button daughter) keep me a boring old fella.

Grow up? No, not me! My children are grown-up, mature, responsible and sensible. I've done that, been there, got the T-shirt - don't intend to do that again!
Grow-up, do not do it. It costs too much and is less fun than you think.
I used to think, when I collected children from school with older friends that had them, that I would never recognise mine when I came to do the school run for my own child (they all looked the same to me). I grew up the day I picked my first child up from school after his first day and knew who he was just by seeing the top of his head bobbing along the corridor behind a window.
