I think that being an adult is better than being a child, because there are not a lot of posibilities when you are a child. You can't do anything without your parents' permission whereas adults can do anything without anyone's permission. Nobody controls you, nobody restricts you. Everything depends only on your desires and resources. Yes, there is much responsibility when you are an adult, nobody deals with your problems and nobody helps you, but, in my opinion, it is better than not being able to decide what to do and being limited. In my opinion, freedom is more important.
