First time I heard it in a celebrity interview. I thought it was a millenial term. I pay the bills, do the grocery, budget finances. So far, I'm just enduring it. I dont like adulting at all. Do you?

Haha there is so much more to 'adulting' that is why it is good to keep children as children so that they do not have to deal with the mundane!

Exactly. They don't know yet haha. I'm thinking of ways to get off this adulting but the health problems are creeping in. I belief it is adulting as well.

@yoalldudes Oh, now I understand. My daughter was like that while growing up. But it came naturally from her eventually.

@yoalldudes No, because we always chat with her. Though we miss her. She comes home every Christmas- her birthday. And we also get to be with her when we visit her in Manila.

@yoalldudes I get what you are saying. Yes, it is nice you like to play with kids. One thing I still like as an adult is collecting dolls & coloring. I feel like a big kid.

Yes. Hopefully, we can bring back a little of that childlike spirit by trying out new things and enjoying the simple pleasures of life. I enjoy playing with kids.

Being an adult carries with it so much responsibility. There isnt much opportunity for fun.

I love life as well and I doing my best to not let adulting rob me of that joy. Being wiser is welcome though. A good part of adulting.

Yes, it is a new term for old activities. Not all of them are my favorite.

I look at the positive side. I feel nice when a job is finished and not when it is being done.. That is all there is to 'adulting' (lol)

Before you can pay them, you have to work first. I think it is another example of adulting lol

I'm hoping I can automate and delegate. At least that's what I found on the internet.
