People Are Tweeting Things They Realized As They Got Older, And Here Are 30 Answers
Interview With ExpertWe may not remember a lot of things from our childhood; however, there is no doubt that often, if not always, we used to think that our parents were wrong about a lot of things and that we knew better. And only as we got a little bit older did all the things that our parents complained about or told us to do start to make sense.
While there are still quite a few things that we don’t fully agree with or understand, people on X (formerly Twitter) started discussing little things that they realized only as they got older. So, guys, scroll through and hopefully you can relate to many of them as well.

Yes!!! Whoever doesn't believe this should go take a hike! (See what I did there?... Huh?... I'll see myself out.)
As a dad, I can relate. We suscribed for an estimate consumption of 80€ a month, turns out real consumption is 130€ a month ... everyone has been lectured and briefed now
Some people still should not be parents. They are far from doing anything "best"
Disagree. Food, housing, and mental health care all come with a price tag. The last of those being the most important, the most costly, and the most unattainable. USA, USA!! 😒😒😒😒
It took me all my life to realise that "truth" and "kindness" are often opposites.

No, it isn't. Regularly skip breakfast, no noticeable side effects.
I aspire to having a tidy enough house to have a cleaner….
600 minutes at room temperature will thaw that bird right out.
If you're going on a day trip no matter how short always bring snacks and drinks for everyone.
And blankets if it's Winter and sun screen if it's Summer. 😁
