Working adult life feels worry-free compared to school. There was always more homework or studying to do after a full day in the classroom.
One of the privileges of adult life is leaving work at the office. (I know not every adult does this but every adult has the option.)

- gonehome 4y agoYeah, but you have agency and the ability to improve these things as an adult - often you don’t as a kid. It’s still unfairly skewed of course by the initial starting point and highly dependent on IQ (or if you don’t like IQ however you consider varied innate ability). Still, all things equal having the agency is better than not.
