we grow older, learn to walk and talk and develop all our motor skills, go to school and all the other things we do as kids. But god forbid we want to do something for ourselves. Apparently we need our parents and/or a teacher or carer around to 'help' us this goes on from the day we're born to about the age of fourteen.
at this stage we're developing into young adults. our parents like to classify us as young adults because we should start being responsible and be able to look after ourselves. BUT then comes the other side of this and when its conveniant to our parents we're not responsible and we can't make decisions for ourselves.
The world is hypocritical these days.
We grow older and and eighteen we are supposedly our 'own' person. we go to uni or tafe and we get marked down by our teachers because they havnt had their morning coffee or the night before fuck from their respective partners, or their just to god damned self hating that they have no chance of being happy.
we get a job. we get screwed over by our bosses, by people competing for our jobs. we get more and more work thrust upon us trying to get that promotion but it always goes to the young bastard. the one that's 'fresh' and 'hip' the one who knows whats going on in the world.
we have kids and they screw us over because we're screwing them over as parents (see above)
we grow old. we retire. we get screwed by the government. the pension isn't enough. our kids and grandkids don't visit often because 'granpa's house smells like old people'. our bodies slowly deteriorate and our bones break easily, we have heart problems.
we die.
