Trix are for Kids and Bills are for Adults (I'll take the Trix please)

Since when did I become a grown up? There used to be a time in my life when my biggest decision was " Should I wear my pink strawberry shortcake shirt with my jelly shoes or my purple chipmunk shirt?" I STILL have to make this decision from time to time but now I have added decisions to make. Should I choose PPO or HMO, Cheap Gas or pay more to avoid auto repairs down the road, Rent or buy a home, Put money in checking or savings( this one really doesn't matter because you end up spending it no matter which account the money is in)

Granted there are some cool decisions that you can make as an adult. "Do I want wine or liquor with my dinner?" but in the long run the easy decisions are far and few. Yet, Children are in such a RUSH to grow up. They are so quick to dream about the day they can move out of their parents home and have FREEDOM! I am sorry to break this to you but there is no such word!

I think adults need to stop trying to advise their children to enjoy their childhood and just start treating them like adults. Parents are you tired of being a chauffeur and taxi? well CHARGE those kids for your service. In the real world the meter is ALWAYS running and if you have more than two friends accompany you in a car they will charge you extra! (unfair yes but hey that's the "FREEDOM" you get as an adult) Children not doing their chores (hey that's your form of work and you know what happens when adults don't work) NO MONEY!!! and with no money comes bills and possible Repossession of all of your belongings. So parents, go in their room and take out EVERYTHING!!! leave them with a blanket and box of Shells and cheese and tell them to make it last because they have a week left before their next payday.

Believe me kids if you don't want to have the "freedom" of choosing between a clean mouth or clean clothes ( Laundry detergent and toothpaste are NOT cheap!!!) then stay at home as long as you can, enjoy not having bills and help out your parents (do your chores) believe me you will have plenty of time to enjoy being a grown up but for now ENJOY YOUR TRIX. and that's my thought on the matter
