Some people juts never grow up. Some were taught to be responsible or basically forced into responsibility because of their circumstances. Life can teach some tough lessons. I think the question is are you willing ot learn from them or will you just blame life for giving you a shitty deal? My brother was spoiled rotten. He has a violent temper and is having a hard time dealing with having a new baby now. On the other hand I know a man who has never married or had a kid but is one of the most upstanding and responsible men I know. My brother got all the things he needed growing up. The other man dealt with a lot of hard blows by the time he was 14 even. His mom died of cancer, and his dad left to work on the oil rigs in Ak. He was left at the age of 14 to drive his brothers and sister to school every day. He was left to care for his younger siblings during the week and Dad only came home every weekend or two. How do you respond to what life throws your way? Do you take responsibility or do you start the blame game? That is one of the greatest measures of maturity that I've ever seen.
