I miss playing sports and fucking around. It's hard to organize lacrosse with 6 people in your 30s with kids :(

I enjoyed high school. I did well in high school. My father was never around And my mother lived 900 miles away but I still had everything I needed so I had immense freedom compared to that of my peers.

I still have lots of friends from high school over 20 years later, And because of moving around the country a lot before high school I had to make most of those friends in high school. I would never go back to the way things were. I don't mind having a job if it means I get to choose what's in the fridge, what I get to build and where I get to build it.

Also what high school did you go to that it was 9:00 to 3:00? I went to 16 different schools in five states and I've never seen a school day that short. High school for me started at 7:00 which meant I had to get up at 6:00 and it didn't get out until almost 4:00 And if you had any extracurricular activities you probably didn't see sunlight a good portion of the year.

Yeah... For sure... Let's say I currently don't have it this way. School from 8 to 6, come back home, do homework, repeat 5 days/week. Weekends: I have to work at my job and do my homework = less than 1 day of actual break. I can honestly say, I can't wait to finish school so I can have my evenings and weekends without having to worry about 7 courses until I have kids that will take those away from me. But that's a later me problem.

What school started at 9 mine was 8 on the dot. Also you only got 6 weeks we got 10. Did this person even go to school or is this the matrix pretending to be a human again.

Wisdom comes with age.

A kid wanting to grow up fast and an adult wanting to be kid for having less responsibilities.

School now is 8 to 6 or 8 to 4, depending on if your parents work
