what dose it mean to be an adult? To me an adult is taking responsibility for your own actions, you can't always do things right but atlease you try thats the point right? As you reach a certain things start changing your parents stop doing so things you never thought they would stop doing but thats the way a lot of people learn to do things on there own, to make there own family. life is always gonna be hard you just have to find aways out of making the best for you and your family. Alot of teens around the word have to grow up at a young age, but some stay young for ever. I wish but for me life dont really work like that its much harder way much harder. Most people understand what im comeing from but its hared to write what i really want because im in class i cant really focus and i have a certain amout of time to do this but hopefully i can take the time out of class and write what i really wanna write.
