Well, that's a question to make ya think! There are so many different ages that bring so many different wonderful experiences that it would be so hard to just pick one. Childhood was great. Being so young and innocent without any cares in the world.There were no responsibilities and life was fun and carefree! Then, the teens, well those were difficult, but also beared some great times. Making close friendships, highschool days, first love, first kiss, etc. The twenties for me were pretty interesting. I had my children young so that was definitely a challenge but also it was a time for me to figure out where my life was heading, I experienced alot and have plenty memories. Now I am in my thirties and I have to say it is great. I am raising another daughter. She is 18 months old and the difference now at this age is that I can give her my 100%. When I had my others I was younger and less matyre, plus I missed out on alot. I wasn't ready to give up my life 100%.I still wanted to go out with friends more than I should've. But now, it's all about my family and kids and that feels great! I am wiser now, I've learned how to deal with alot that life throws at me and I am all around more stable which is a wonderful feeling. All the yrs have been great, it would be very hard to chose.Thanks for this good discussion!and Happy Mylotting!

Thanks for responding.My sister in law had children at a very young age and she says she missed alot and that she felt like she could have been a better mother if she would have been a little older so I see what youre saying.I think that just making memories is good enough I dont think I would go back to certain age but maybe ill change my mind in the future?LOl thanks again for responding

I would like to stay at 17. I think it is the best age. You can enjoy both phases of life, i.e you can get what a man wants and u can also be treated as a teenager at that age. I wish I could be 17 again and stay at that age forever. I turned up 21 tday so just not feeling gud, as ONE WHOLE year has decreased from my life.

I would like my body to be in my early 20's but I kind of like the way my brain is evolving, so I'd like to keep my thoughts and experiences the same...

A while ago some of my friends and I discussed this topic, and many of them thought that it would be great to stay a child forever. I disagree with that, and I prefer being an adult. The thing that I dislike the most about childhood is the inability to make your own decisions. You can make small decisions, but in many cases you have to do as your parents say. My freedom and my ability to make my own decisions are really important to me, and I don't want to give up those things. I don't want to stay 20 or 25, either. I was pretty immature when I was 20, and I don't want to give up the experience that I have gained. I guess that my conclusion is that I don't want to be any younger than I am and I don't want to stay young, either.

I would give anything to be 10 years old again, and not just because it was a time of innocence and being carefree. It was also the age where I developed my first serious crush on a boy, who I still think about even today. Oh, I'd love to go back and experience all that again! :D So many great memories...
