There are plenty of things I'll bet that you all have done and regretted in your childhood. (Hopefully) you all have probably gone over and went past it, but can you all share it?

Lack of stability. Moved around way to much and no, it was not because of the military.

    My father owned a mom and pop store. He spent 14 hours/day there. We never wanted but he instilled in us the belief that we would never be as successful as him, never be as wealthy as him, and that we were never as important as his store and money. My brother died (s*****e) trying to be as successful as he was.

    Not joining more intramurals and other sports teams or some other group. I had a hellish time making friends and bullied in school from various grades. But for some reason I got along much better when I was briefly on my class baseball team. I was even cheered on by the people who were horrible to me. I think it was the best time in Grade 5 I had and boosted my confidence.

    Riding my bike to the pool when I was in Jr. High and putting quarters in the jukebox, eating fries, sharing a cigarette with my friends. We swam a lot but every hour the lifeguard blew the whistle for a rest period. Young, wild and free.

    even though legally i am still a minor, i reminisce about how I let someone steal what was mine to begin with; happiness. I was s****************d by a classmate at the age of 10-11 (5th-6th grade) and never told a soul because I thought it was my fault. I started to distance myself from my friends and instead of playing at lunch I sat in front of my classroom's door and read until it was time to go back inside. I feel like I had to grow up at an early age to avoid being harassed or assaulted. I was the dubbed "weird kid" in the classroom, and people liked to make fun of me a lot.

    also was confused about gender for a while (first thought I was trans, then realized I felt more gender-non-comforming aka nonbinary because it fit who I was better). still can't believe how many rude comments i've gotten about it.

    My dad. My dad started to say stuff like “you’re so skinny” and touched me in areas I didn’t wanted to be touched in and started laying in bed with me. It started in FOURTH grade (I was 9) and I told someone in fifth grade (I was 10). What a disgusting man. If I could time travel, I would tell my fourth grade self to tell someone before it escalated.

    That my big sister and I were never close (still aren't 😔). I wanted so much to be like her, but she just thought I was a pest.
