Answer 1

My childhood was actually not all that pleasant, but there are small things I remember quite fondly. I miss being a kid sometimes, too.

Answer 2

i am 31 now i feel the same way when i think about my old school friends when ever i meet my childhood friends after long time or when i listen to a movie song which i have seen in my childhood..it happens with every body some or the other time,, but what i feel we should not get emotionally involved in it to a certain extend that we get depressed thinking about it i have 2 sons now i live all my childhood in them and try ny hard to make there future better i live inside them... i am young now so i think of my childhood when i will become 60..65 yr old i know i will think of time when i was young..so don't think about a past we cannot go back to past so live in present and try to make the better future . concentrate to make a better future u will get ur childhood back when u will become a father don't worry .

Answer 3

I knowww, I feel the same way!

I miss all the activities I did as a kid, how I could eat so much and stay so little, my neighbors, how everything seemed so cool, and no one judged you.

Now I'm 19 years old, a sophomore in college and seeing all of my young friends turn into adults, it is so crazy to see.

Being a kid was really fun but there are so many more fun years to come!!

Btw, how old are you?

Answer 4

because now that you are grown up, you wish to go back to the past and change things around

Answer 5

It's because those are the years when you have nothing to worry about.  All you care is to have some fun--no worries, no responsibility and hassle free.  All of us, sometime in our life do look back on those times, thats normal..
