Both of those things.

Not being able to stay up and read, without sneaking a flashlight under the covers.

Having to eat "my" peas, when I hated them.

Couldn't drive!

I don't miss having to keep my mouth shut. Now I can tell someone to fuck off if I want to. Something I couldn't do at 9.

Being told when to eat, what to eat, when you go to bed, what I coulD and couldn't watch, etc.

I had some adults in my life growing up who genuinely deserved my respect. But, a lot of them, were limited people with a lot of power ... a combination that rarely leads to anything good.

We had three ... except my siblings always got to them before I did so I had to watch their stupid crap.

Being a kid had it's good points and I really can't think of anything that I don't miss. It was all fun for me.
