Great to have you all my dear friends around once more. How are we all doing today? Hope we all had a wonderful weekend.
We are now in the 4th week of the Steemit Engagement challenge Season 3. This time, I will be engaging in the challenge of steemkids community with the title W4:Childhood or adulthood, which do you prefer?
Introduction
When I saw this challenge topic, I was laughing all the way. Because it is very funny and interesting. Well let me go straight to the challenge tips to talk more on this.
Who is considered as a child in your country? Include age
A child can have several meanings depending on the angle or statement to which it is applied.
A child can mean someone below the age of puberty or below the age of an adult.
It could also mean the son or daughter of a parent. The term could also refer to someone who acts immaturely or irresponsibly in issues.
Despite all these definitions my country have its own definition of a child. In Nigeria, a child is someone is between the ages of 0 years to 17.999 years.
So once a person is eighteen years, he is no more a child but treated as an adult, taking full responsibility of his actions whether good or bad.
Who is considered as an adult in your country? Include age
As earlier said, an adult is a person who is 18 years and above in age. Such a person is said to be a grown up, having the ability to take his or her own decisions, thus being held accountable for his inactions.
To further confirm this, such a person can register for his voters card. To be able to exercise his right of voting and be voted for, process his national identity card, engage in any contract including marriage and be liable for them.
Give at least 3 reasons why you prefer childhood or adulthood
Personally, I would prefer Childhood to Adulthood for these reasons.
° As a child you do not bother yourself with the problems of an adult. You do not think about what the Future will be, about whom to marry or even money.
° As a child you get the most of the attention you need from your loving parents and guardians. They are always interested in your well-being and happiness.
°.Childhood offers an opportunity to learn and acquire so many skills as quickly as possible. This is because the brains is at a very high absorption level unlike when we are adults, the speed of learning reduces drastically.
° A child imaginative thinking can run wild, trying out new things without fear of failure and being adjudged negatively by other people. This part of a child is not enjoyed by an adult.
However, I would like to say briefly that each of the stages are good. What most people would choose is dependent on their experiences on each level whether childhood to Adulthood.
If you have pictures of your childhood and adulthood, we will like to see it.
Unfortunately, I do not have my childhood photos with me where I live now. My childhood photographs are in my hometown and cannot access them right now.
However, I have my adulthood pictures and I cherish them so much.
Conclusion
This is actually a lovely contest. Talking about adulthood and childhood reminds us of both good and bad memories. Unfortunately, we cannot go back to being a child again, but we can make good of our adulthood and get the best from it.
I invite @goodybest, @benson6 and @madilyn02 to join in this contest.
Long live childhood and all those happy moments, attention, unconditional love of our parents, that bond will never be broken, I understand why you prefer this stage, because no matter how old we are now, it is that childhood that marks us as adults. Good luck in the contest.

This is one of the points most have us forgotten to mention and it a very positive one of which we prefer childhood to adulthood. Immediately you become an adult, there are certain things that your parents will stop doing for you and they expect you to take good care of yourselves. This give them opportunity to look after the younger ones so that they can have a good upbringing. As a child, mothers especially are always caring for the natural well being of their children and this makes them feel very comfortable and learn from what life has to offer. A child being well taken care of, grows up to be a very successful and decent individual in the society.

This is what I have not been seeing in most of the posts published, the experiences matter, someone with a rough childhood experience wouldn't prefer a childhood life.
But still, both are intertwined, there can't be adulthood without childhood preferring your childhood over adulthood is amazing, your childhood experiences must be Interesting, in my publication I preferred adulthood, you could see preseason why.
Thanks for sharing

The absence of strong responsibilities, parental care, imaginative development, games and fun are reasons that make you prefer childhood.
We are all forced to grow up, but we will always want to be children again, to enjoy without worries, and live every moment to the fullest.
Successes in the contest.

Hola amigo, que buena tu entrada al desafío semanal. La adultez y niñez son etapas buenas, sinn embargo cada quien tiene sus preferencias.
Al igual que tu prefiero la inocente y despreocupada etapa de la niñez, donde éramos felices sin saberlo.
Dios te bendiga, éxitos.

You are so right! As children we get so many more opportunities. Such a pity we didn’t grab them when we were younger. If only we can turn back time.
Good luck for the contest! 🤞🏻
