It's all about growing up

Quoted from Natasha Lee;

Isn't it intriguing and irony to see how the little changes in life drew a clear line between a kid and a grown-up?

When lollipops turn into cigarettes and the innocent ones turn into sluts. Homework goes in the trash while Mobile phones are being used in class. Detention becomes suspension as Soda becomes vodka. Underwear turns into thongs, Kisses turn into sex.Remember when getting high meant swinging on the playground? Protection meant wearing a helmet not a condom? When the worst things you could get from boys were cooties? Sitting on Daddy’s shoulders were the highest place on earth and Mom was your all-time favorite hero? Your worst enemies were your siblings. Race issues were about who ran the fastest. War was only a board game. And the only drug you knew was cough medicine. The most pain you felt was when you skinned your knees, and goodbyes only meant until tomorrow? The only drama you knew of was Romeo and Juliet? The only thing you could cheat in was a game, and players were for sports not relationships? The only way we could change was with our clothes and not ourselves. Yet, we absolutely could not wait to grow up?

And now, growing up is our greatest fear.
