add your own reasons 8)

so far

1) We don't know as much
2) We don't follow the rules
3) We don't know the rules
4) We know a lot, like a sponge absorbing new information
5) We learn new things quickly, like computers
6) We are inquisitive, always asking why?
7) We are curious, always trying new things

Kids haven't been taught to stop imagining. Adults put in place so many rules about what is and isn't correct. There is still room for creativity, but it's not the same as in kids.

so adults have been taught to stop imagining?
How, so...

Not disagreeing, just interesting, I know adults slap people out of day dreaming, so that's one example...
and it isn't always socially acceptable to play with your food when you are a adult....

but hey.. I don't always adhere to social rules ... 8)

young people are clever because the 21st century requires more input from young people while in the past the opinion of youngsters wasn't important, now we are asked to participate in everything so we have to know things about everything

btw josh long time no speak :P

old people idolize them and want to be like them and they want to flatter them so that the young people will return a nice thought in their direction.

youthfullness is so prized that many grizzled adults bow and scrape for a snippet of attention from a young and unwrinkled appraisal of them.

everyone will be old one day and everyone will die.
so to be so subservient to youth like mothers are to their teen daughters is moot.

the world moves on in a very uncaring way, and in 100 years all the people that are idolized today will be carcasses long dead.

i just spend my time doing what i want to do and i care not for the buzz of celebrity that will be a layer of shale in 10,000 years time.

we are unspoiled, our mind untouched by evil, our judgement not clouded by others opinions, our naivety, childish behaviour, instead of worrying and toiling we can just play, but sadly (and this is an opinion of a 13 year old) most kids never experience this and in a way i missed out on a lot of this, do you know what? im going out to play tommorow =D

You have nothing, you have nothing to lose, so we are more likely to take risks, whereas older people have a mortgage to pay and a family to look after and it holds them down and glues them into a boring life.
