20 Things That Sucked As Kids But Rock as an Adult

Being a kid can be hard sometimes, you aren't taken seriously and you have no autonomy to do anything for yourself. We went over to r/AskReddit and found some things that sucked when we were kids, but are great as an adult. Nothing sounds better than a nap on a rainy Saturday afternoon.

I remember as a kid always begging to go home after about 10 minutes of going over to my parents friends house because all they did was sit around and talk and drink and I thought they were the most boring people on earth. Now I go over to my friends place just to sit around and talk and drink and it is a highlight of my week. u/UsernameTaken-Taken
