want to know am i just a wacko in that i envy the lives of captive aquarium fish kept in the right set-ups since as it seems that they have no responsibilities. All they have do is eat and defend a territory: And in the right set-ups they have little territory problems.I know theres a lot more to it then that but want to know is that just my weird personality or do you sometimes feel like that.

Let's look at it this way.
You are put into a hospital environment, sterile to your needs, you are fed, there is an area in the hospital where there are some trees, flowers a small water fall some benches. But you can't leave your "box". You have to stay there. No responsibilities. Food is a variable of a few different things but in essence the same thing over and over. No experience outside what you get in the box.
Sound good?

I mean no offense to the OP, but anytime I hear a young "adult", much less an adolescent, and never a child, speaking as if they understand "responsibility", "sacrifice" or "hardship", I shake my head and walk away....
I don't have any children by blood, but I've raised several. When I've told them "You ain't old enough to have problems" they all understood...in time.....

I don't think a 10 year old has any concept of responsibility just yet. You don't have a job, you don't have bills to pay, you don't have rent or a mortg@ge. You don't have to take care of your dying parents. You aren't a father, a caretaker, a guardian. You don't have a wife to take care of...You probably don't even wash your own cloths, do your own dishes and worry about putting food on the table. What responsibility do you know and have? Doing your homework?
Gimme a break. pft, you know nothing of responsibility yet, kid. You mise well enjoy your youth now because in less than 8 years, the SHTF.
RG,
I only say these things because well, I care for yah man. You remind me a little bit of myself when I was a kid. You need to stop trying to act more mature then you are and go have some fun.
