>>60548043 (OP)I miss my health as a youth, but I don't miss being in my teens at all.
School is essentially a prison, every minute of every day you're accounted for, and you're forced to wake up early to go to the school where you have to spend hours everyday learning about shit you don't care about that's unrelated to your desired career, trapped in a confined space surrounded with other members of the public that range from cool, normal, to psychopathic and violent, and your lunch is mid.
Having to go home and spend hours doing homework on shit you don't care about that you'll promptly forget after exams.
Not having any money and not having my own things like a computer, or phone, or anything. Having to share the one TV.
No privacy, no lock on my door despite asking for one, siblings and at least one parent are always home and could barge into my room at any moment.
Not having a car and having no way to get around or find a job without first clearing it with my parents on getting a ride because I lived in the middle of nowhere.
Not having my own time, forced to help with chores or go out to help run errands without notice. If my parents decided that day we were going to clean the house I had to spend my day doing that, even if I had other things planned, it couldn't wait a few hours or to another day.
Life as a wagie is better than this.
Sure Mr. Shekelstein requires me to be in the office by 9am but there's no homework to do after 5pm, and my co-workers aren't as retarded/psychopathic/violent as members of the public, and when I go home all that time is my own to enjoy or maintain my place as I see fit, and I can afford whatever I want and use my free time to do whatever I want.
Even better is I can save and invest my money, so eventually I'll reach a point where all my time will be my own again and I'll still be able to afford whatever I want, within reason of course.
