How do you define responsibilities of adult life, though? Isn't that still such a broad choice of things you should do and possibly are doing? Or maybe I'm actually doing it wrong, but I'm a lot happier since I've been working full time and cosplay as an adult. (Was working during uni and overall disliked it more than I liked it, maybe too involved but I find myself with a lot more free time now, also a lot more money, guess the only difference is that they expect me show up every day).
- shswkna 4y agoTo answer your question I would have to step into ideological territory. IMO, these things count as signs of adulthood: Having a stable relationship, building a family, building a business or being engaged in your community somehow. In essence giving and contributing, instead of (only) taking and benefiting from society. Kids are allowed that, adults have to be pillars of society. I know this sounds conservative, but it isn’t. Its just the only way a society can work and persist. The OP argued that we should make adulthood more attractive. I agree. Depending on where you live, life as an adult can be worthwile. I find that the key ingredient is community and social bonds.
