All grown up?

We as little children always have a dream on what we want to do when we grow up: become a Fireman, Militery, Secert agent, and etc. We can't wait to grow up until we find out about death achilds pet my have die or a family member may have passed on: then growing up becomes something that you don't want to do, but it is going to happen any way. About the time that you become a teenager you realize that you are closser to becoming an adult, and teenagers start to try to have as much fun as they can before they become adults.Either it comes down to drinking, smoking weed, even havaing $ex and braging about how many girls/boys you've had. It makes things difficult when adults demand for respect from teens and do not even give respect to them. Which would cause a child to become a rebel: A learder that does not choose to abide by anyones rules. When a child decides not to play by the rules thats when the innocents goes away, and respect and manners is just a word that would make them chuckle as if it were a joke of the past. eventually the teenager grows up and either he was a rebel or he abided by the rules: sometimes you have some rebels that get older and find out that going by the rules will lead you down a better path. Then before you know it you are accepting yor diploma or your in the unemployment line: your life has passed before your eyes. Did you do all that you could do or did you do just enough to pass? Did you even stop to relize that you still grownig up while you are an "adult": What is the meaning of adult?I see adults that get made like teens do and laugh at the same thing that we teens laugh at.I end with this question: What is growing up, and when does it happen?: Eventually we will find out.
