Ab Worth

Same. I don’t think a single adult “You’ll agree with me when you’re older” or “You’ll know better when you’re older” or “You’ll understand when you’re older” ever happened. All those adults were either wrong or attempting to manipulate or harm me in some way.

A part of that is due to where and when I grew up. It was probably better in other areas. But most adults at any time aren’t particularly wise nor particularly knowledgeable, so their advice and what is “obvious” to them is typically absolute crap and worthless.

Nothing To Do

This is true anywhere and always, but it has gotten worse. Most of the time when people argue with some point I’ve made I typically don’t engage because I realize they have not understood in the least and don’t even know what half the words mean.

Why get in the middle of that? Whatever is going on there has naught to do with me.
