when your a child you dont have many responsibilites except taking yourself to the bathroom, feeding yourself and maybe if your parents are too busy cleaning your room. Apart from these tiny responsibilities children get it easy, get to play all day don't need to worry about deadlines for work or essays for uni, and if their parents have no dicipline they get everything they want. Seriously what could be better than being a child? Side: child
I am a minor and that is the most absurd arguement I have ever heard. As a child I can't even be left at home or leave my home for long periods of time without being in trouble with the law. I have to do chores, do homework, and go to school. It's illegal to not attend school. Children and adolecenses are in line to be the next adults. Adults can do what they want when they want. Adult life is simply more fun. Side: adult
Would you WANT to leave your home for a long period of time or longer than you're allowed. I doubt that you'd really want to go and try to survive in the world on your own! And come on! Do you seriously believe that adults can do whatever they want! If anything they have MORE chance of getting in trouble with the law than children do! And chores, if you want to live in a dirty house with dustballs and dirty dishes and clothes I'm sure (not to put words in your parents mouths) that your parents would be happy to arrange that for you. Adult life has more challenges, more stress, and a lot less fun. Side: child

But really, look at it from an adult's view. They envy the child. Ignorance actually IS bliss, and children get to have that! Sure, the children have to go to school by law, but don't adults have to go to work? And children don't even have to worry about being fired for budget costs! They don't have to pay taxes, maintain a fairly good job and household, AND raise children at the same time. So looking at it like that, is a little homework, and learning more about the world you live in really THAT bad? Side: child
The definition of fun (from the Random House Dictionary) is something that provides mirth or amusement. With that definition being what it is, the definition of fun for most people is different. If we are centering on the idea of "fun," though, we must fulfill the definition. Children are very easily amused. A child can play for hours in the sand, focusing on just a rock. Children also have more of a tendency to laugh than adults do. There are the choice few adults that have a "child-like" spirit, meaning they laugh easily and are very exuberant. Even the most gloomy adults can be filled with this "child-like" spirit when they are amused or excited. This is because the experiences that shape our ideas of what is fun happen in our childhoods. The core idea of "fun" for everyone is based completely on experiences. That is why it is more fun to be a child. Because they're behavior fulfills the definition, and the unique idea of "fun" is based on childhood experiences. Admittedly, being an adult has it's advantages. However, the idea of "fun" stems from the childhood. Side: child
why would you ever want to grow up when your a child you learn new things everyday get to go place that amaze you and find friends that you will love forever. When your an adult you dont have time to do this any more you have to go to work and deal with your responsibilitys if we had a choice i would stay a kid for ever. Side: child
This is the period where one gets to be with their parents for a whopping 18 years . But when the turn to become an adult arrives, they tend to do whatever they want, they ignore their parents’ advices and start to live in isolation. During their childhood days they learn how to respect their parents and others. It only decides whether the person will be good or bad when he or she grows up into an adult. Side: child

Most of the brain development happens when a person is still a child. It is because during the age from 0 -5, a person’s brain tends to grow to its maximum, after which it won’t grow. We have to use whatever is given. So during this period, a child tends to learn many important things in his or hers life like walking, talking and to learn to write and draw. These are very important for a growing person. After a child becomes an adult, he or she will feel that they have learnt everything in this world and enter into only earning money with their knowledge. But when a person is in his or her childhood, he or she prefers to learn whatever they are interested in and will want to think further about that by themselves. Side: child
I am a child and my life is easy when compared with an adult! I may hate some school stuff like reading class but it's better then work. Some children are forced to grow too fast. Middle class or poor adults are sometimes exploated by rich adults. Children who can be children like myself have an easy life. I admit that children have less privileges then adults and I can't go to israel yet unless I save money and waterside tester is a fun job but I can explore kid things all while being interested in adult stuff as well! Work is hard and some bosses are AWFUL! It's hard to be I'm a child is it? I am autisic! Side: child

When you're a child you are always looking ahead. As a senior adult I find I spend more time looking back at regrets and missed opportunities. As a child you have the adventure of the unknown ahead of you with a seemingly unlimited amount of time to enjoy it. As an adult you look over you shoulder at what might have been with the realization that you have less time to go than what you have lived. I'll take childhood any day. Side: child

its easier to talk to your friends as a kid and being a kid ur friends dont really mind if you're poor they don't really care about backrounds or what you're mom or dad does as for a job, face it, kids just talk to their friends about a more wide subject than most adults do Side: child

No they can't they have to pay the bills,make your dinner assuming you're a child,tuck you into bed again of you are a child,help you with homework again if you don't go to aftercare and a child. Work is hard you know some adults have a bad boss and there are laws to follow and after work you may not have to do homework but if you're a teacher or a whole lot of jobs you have dunt dunt dunt paperwork and that's sometimes more then homework. If you're a child like me when you grow up you'll most likely think that adulthood is harder like me. Side: child

Everyone expects you to go somewhere in life, that's why they want you to learn. If you're stupid, then you're stupid. Adults just didn't learn it back when they were in school. So what you're saying is that an adult's life is more fun because they're stupider than their children. Side: child

Everyone expects you to go somewhere in life, that's why they want you to learn. They don't want me to learn, they want me to earn, so they can tax me heavily. If you're stupid, then your stupid. The odds are that I am far more intelligent than you. Do not mistake a pithy observation for an admission of idiocy. So what you're saying is that an adult's life is more fun because they're stupider than their children. Stupid people seem happy enough to me. Side: adult
A child is a mere seedling in the world while An adult is a mighty tree, rising up and soaking up the sunlight. The adult shields the child and protects it. An adult can stand up for themselves. An adult is listened to. An adult can stand up for themseves. While a child mingles with other youth in their schools an adult is free to do what they dream. A child may not leave an adult without strong consent and strict regulations. All that stops an adult is the money to pay for it. An adult life is a better life. Side: adult
You make it sound like all fun and games. News flash. NOT REALLY. There is so much stress in adult lives. An adult cannot stand up for themselves most of the time with the 99% chance of getting fired over their heads! And being free to do what they dream is true too, but like I said before, it brings stress. It wouldn't be life in a dream world. It's reality. When a child tries to leave, it's for their own safety that there are regulations! And if an adult wants to leave, well, why would they? They're already in their dream job. Side: child
WELL.....i do agree because when your a child you will think man i wish i were an adult because of the following reasons: BOSSED AROUND,EASIER STOLEN,AND MOST LIKELEY EASIER INJURED! But the circumstances of when you are a adult you will have the following things to: PAYING BILLS,MORE RESPONSIBILITIES,HAVE YOUR HOUSE AND OTHER TO KEEP CLEAN,AND ETC. As a kid you get to: BE LAZY,GO CRAZY, MORE SCHOOL,AND ETC. But as an adult you get to: LOTS MORE FREEDOM,GET A CAR,MORE FRIENDS,COLLEGE,AND ETC. But i think its a little of a toss up but adult wins but a 5 more reasons to me well thats my opinion Side: adult

...Even if you are the role model, but if you are not showing to your child or kid the good values that they should learn from you cause you the role model. If you are not teaching them this values you are not considered as a good role model or a role model of your children and there are many things to consider an adult a good role model...;) Side: child
Well, my opinion as a child would be different as an adult, because the adults would want to go back to being a kid (at least for a day right?) And a child just wants to get out of school and get it over with. So i chose adult and when i am a adult i most likely will choose child. Side: adult
Being a child, or being young, limits a human to a lower level of experience/appreciation/understanding than one who is older. we can remember well and cherish memories of being sixteen years old but, there is No way we'd want to live through that age again. It's a nice place to visit but we wouldn't want to live there. Side: adult

adults are better because they have more freedom and can eat fast food whenever they feel like it. you don't have to go to school, and you don't have to ask for permission for everything, unlike when you were a kid. you get to experience more when you are older, and as a kid you only have so much life until you become an adult. go adults!
