What was it like when you were a kid?

I know that in preschool I would not leave my mother's side. I would not play with the other children my age. Unless my older brother (three years older) was there. My mother says that I would do anything in his class but nothing in my own. I have nothing but fond memories of preschool so I don't think I was anxious just uninterested or unsure. I didn't even play with my brother but his presence somehow made it ok to be me. I remember everyone commented on my eyes as a child and I liked it, but as an adult I normally avert my eyes out of discomfort. If a person is non-threatening I am less likely to avoid eye contact. My fear is being talked to or asked why I am looking at them.
