Growing up

by Misshapenheart21   Jul 13, 2011


As a child their mind is simple
As they grow they know more
As an infant they know only their parents
As they mature they begin to know more of the outside world
As they reach their toddler years they form bonds with whinnie the pooh
As they enter school they think they're too old for fantasy
As they reach their teenage years they miss the hundred acre woods and all of their friends within
As they reach their teenage years they wish away the drama and wipe away the tears
As they reach adulthood they try to teach an infant to never let go of anything they know
As they become elderly they smile as their children and grandchildren surround them, everyone of them avoided complications with a smile

    Growing up is an important part of life...it depends on how to adapt it while walking into the pave of nature for growing up..

    >Infant--their feeling attached most especially to their mother(the warm caress that they always feel)/they just cry when they feel uncomfortable

    >preschool children--they easily feel jealous and wants their wanting toys/things..easily attracted to attractive things...they usually played with imaginary playmates...talking to their self that as if they can only understand self and playmates...

    >adolescent--in this stage life is full of curiosity..full of adventure...and usually love begins with opposite gender...starting to ask self "who I am"--self determination...

    >young adult--begins to be a an independent person..long to love and longing to be love...

    >Adult--life is taken seriously, longing to love and to be love...anticipating the good career and self actualization---maybe perceptible in outlook in life..to be optimistic or pessimistic..life is full of drama---more in decision-making..

    >Old Adult--More on scenarios in life--maybe, reminiscing the world when he/she started growing up--Self contentment or self-denial...

    Just trying to share my ideas here!haha! Any way I like the way you picture out the "Growing Up"
    nice work:=)
