That Grown Up Feeling

When was the first time you really felt like a grown up (if ever)?

Grown ups think they know a thing or two.They’ll stop you running across a busy road and tell you that eating a whole bag of fudge will make you sick.

Jeez,they have a superiority complex.

In the 1960’s there was a supposedly liberating revolution and the youngsters took over while the “grown ups”looked on and looked out of touch.

But it’s all gone back to square one again.The grown ups think they know best and are in charge again.

Yeah,like most revolutions,the 1960’s fizzled out and now we’re left with tertiary educated autocrats who want to control everything about our lives.

I wouldn’t mind but grown ups don’t always know best.
