Hey Pandas, What Are The Top 3 Things That You Miss From Childhood? (Closed)

ADVERTISEMENT

My sister and I have been soul-searching lately, and we're simply in awe of how different kids have it nowadays. I won't reveal my age, but I will say that TRL (Total Request Live) was a show that we would come home and watch after school each day.

My sister and I were reminiscing the other day and came up with the top 3 things we miss from our childhood. Whether it be something that you would just look foolish doing as an adult or something that has been phased out from technological advancements, reminisce with us!

#1

Obviously my childhood was a few decades back.
1. No cell phones. (You could feel free and disconnected while out doing things instead of having what is basically a digital dog leash).
2. No internet and social media. (People saw each other in person and did things together).
3. No 24/7 stream of fake news. (Just tell us what happened, and we will decide for ourselves what the implications of it might be).

1) Building Forts out of every and anything and using flashlights as our own internal lighting fixtures!
2) Capturing us with a camcorder, Re-Creating musicals by laying off the edge of the couch upside down and covering our eyes with blankets to make our chins look like faces :)
3) FLOOR IS LAVA! Although it's making a comeback, we would rearrange our furniture into our own type of American Ninja Warrior course to ensure we would never touch the lava infested floor!

Still building forts here. Well, mostly it's the youngsters but their friends are often surprised it's allowed. Do people not build forts with kids and visiting grandkids? Tree forts are the best!

1. Getting to read whatever I wanted pretty much whenever I wanted. That kind of disappeared in 8th-9th grade, when things started getting harder, and they kept giving me busy work to do. I used to be able to spend hours a day reading, and I was several reading levels ahead. Now I'm still rereading books from the 7th grade and scrolling youtube for fun. I miss when I got to read all the time. It was such a healthy escape from the real world.
2. I miss not having to worry about the way I look. When I was little I thought I was the prettiest thing ever. Now that there's so much hate and negativity in the world, and filtered life is so natural to some people, I can't help but see myself as average, and even ugly.
3. There's this Peanuts comic where they're talking about how one day you're never going to just fall asleep in the back of your parents' car again. It really hit me hard when I read it. I miss being able to do that without worrying about everything. It really sucks growing up.

Falling asleep in the parents' car! That one hit differently. Really early memories of watching New Mexico desert sky so full of stars it was like a blanket of light. True dark skies hard to find nowadays.

1. My siblings. There were 8 of us. Now we're scattered all over the globe and have our own families. Getting everyone in one place is like planning a world peace summit.
2. Indestructible cars. Those station wagons and sedans in the 80s were freaking heavy tanks on wheels. I felt safe and small. Nowadays all cars are too light and much too fragile.
3. Low prices. 99 cents for a gallon of gas was a beautiful thing. It felt like living within a budget was actually doable. Now, the mortgage and water bill alone take out your entire paycheck before you even think about eating or filling up your gas tank. Disposable income? What the hell is that? Living from paycheck to paycheck over here, as are most people I know. "Make America great again", my a**!

1) Hearing the icecream truck 4 blocks down (not as much traffic then) and having time to grab 2 quarters before they got to your street where they actually stopped and kids you didn't know existed came out of the woodwork and that's how you made friends.
2) Being able to play outside anywhere in or out of the city and not have to worry about getting abducted or hit by a car.
3) The creativity of the young mind. Could entertain myself for hours within my own thoughts. Now if I don't see a phone or tv within several hours it feels weird....

1) My Grandparents
I called them Grandma and Pap. I loved them both and I would tell them all the time. Sadly, my Pap's mom wouldn't let him say I love you because it wasn't manly. I never got to hear my Pap say, "I love you," but you could see it in his eyes. They lit up when they heard those words. My grandma would tell me it all the time. I would give anything to see them again one last time. They both passed a few years ago. I miss them more than words can express.
2) Going places like Walmart and thinking it was fun.
No joke I thought grocery shopping and stuff was fun. Now that I'm older, I realize it's just a pain. But at least I get out of my house for a bit.
3) My parents having freetime.
They both work all the time. I'm left with my siblings to babysit. I don't have much of a life outside of that sadly.

1. The smell. You know the one. It penetrates your memory but you only know what it smelled like when you catch a ghost of it on the wind. It’s like a name without a face; a rhyme without a reason. I don’t remember where it came from. I wish I could smell it forever but I think it might make me feel sick.

2. The excitement that I felt over everything. My heart fluttered and my eyes sparkled and fireworks went off in my body. Everything was whimsical and golden. Magic. That childlike sense of wonderment is foreign to me now. I don’t remember the last time I felt it.

3. Make-believe. I have not played make-believe in years. I just don’t really enjoy it anymore. So I guess the correct thing to say would be: I miss enjoying playing. I miss sitting down with my toys for hours and being perfectly happy. I miss those ongoing games of dolls that sometimes lasted years. I still remember them. I play them again if you asked me to. But it wouldn’t be fun anymore, and that hurts me.

- The fact that I wouldn't feel self-conscious. I wouldn't have to worry about what I wore. In preschool, I would wear a tutu with stripped leggings and a rainbow polka shirt and no one would care.
- I liked fruit and milk. I don't necessarily miss that but my body needs the vitamins and I don't eat them because I don't like them. I often have to be reminded or told to drink milk and have fruit.
- There weren't so many high expectations and I don't have to worry about my future too much. Now I have to think about SAT, college applications, what I actually want to do with my life, and more.

hey! As a heads up you don't have to drink milk to be healthy, especially if you don't like it. There's plenty of other ways to get calcium. Most adults lose the enzyme to break down cow's milk anyways. You have lots of ways to get calcium while still being healthy, yogurt and cheese, some fruits, lots of nuts and seeds have calcium, along with lots of leafy greens! If there's another reason you're drinking milk, I'd recommend googling alternatives! 😁❤️

My parents actually being my parents. After the age of 13 my mom took me from my dad and left me at a family friends house, promised me she would come get me and then 5 years later still never did. I can count on my fingers the amount of times my mom has told me she loves me after the age of 13 (btw I’m 21 now). My dad has done a lot better than her, he has shown me that he actually loves me, though it could be better on both of our ends. I miss my parents being my parents

Having lots of fresh fruit and veggies, and time outdoors----finding and picking wild asparagus beside the country roads, playing in a crab apple tree with my brother in my grandparents yard for hours, picking wild hickory nuts, picking peas left in the field after Libby harvested them for canning, going to pick strawberries and raspberries.

Living on a farm during high school-- going down to the neighbor's on Friday evening for fresh baked bread smothered in butter. Having my own horse and helping our dog birth 9 puppies when I was home alone.

Living with Gran and Gramps all summer during grade school. Going to swim in a big pool with my brother almost every day. Going to a nearby stables (with lots of animals besides horses) to ride horses, and later work there. Getting to go to a weekend horse show with Carol, the owner, sleeping in a horse stall and going to Sunday church in cowboy boots.

I'm a very sentimental person, so it was hard to narrow it down.
1. Less Responsibility (I know that sounds lazy, but don't get me wrong. I am in a college program I love, and I have a job I'm thriving in. But when you're a kid, there's less pressure, you know?)
2. PC games geared towards kids (Jumpstart, Webkinz, things like that. I don't play those anymore, but they were fun. Even as an adult, the only video games I play are The Sims, SimCity, and Animal Crossing (I prefer Simulation games).)
3. Hershey's Kissables (My maternal grandmother, may she rest in peace, bought me those a few times during the four years they were available. They were my favorite candy, and one of my favorite memories with her, along with going to a bakery we liked. Why did they stop making those?)

Taught me to read and write before 2nd birthday. Funny, smart, could do anything after seeing it once. She also had a 6th sense. I couldn't get away with a darn thing. She knew. Always. Sigh.

Moving on through the years and all the computers and consoles that followed. Nothing in the modern era has ever recaptured that feeling

3) Basically not having to worry about 'grown up' stuff like the house destroying itself overnight, or whether petrol prices are going to rise again, or bin day, the weekly shopping trip, paying the bills and all the other hideous things that adults have to do but as a kid you totally take for granted are 'someone else's problem'

Ieva Midveryte

Hello Pandas! My name is Ieva, though it's often mistaken for the word 'Leva,' and in Lithuanian, it means 'loser' (insert the pain emoji). While I don't take offense if you accidentally call me a loser, I thought I'd share something interesting with you, which I also do professionally at work.Anywayyy, my favorite part here is introducing you to creative people who deserve just as much recognition as famous celebrities. Besides that, I also enjoy memes and funny, lighthearted posts, and occasionally, I find myself drawn to a bit of internet drama.

Hello Pandas! My name is Ieva, though it's often mistaken for the word 'Leva,' and in Lithuanian, it means 'loser' (insert the pain emoji).

What's really sad is all kids these days will have to "miss from childhood" pretty much are strictly tv show related or video games or phone models. They have very little substance to their childhood.

Have to laugh at some of these. Cheap Gas never was an option in Europe. I can say that I miss the wide spread and available public and mass transit systems in Europe that I grew up with. In the media, I'd say that I miss those parts that did not cater to the Lowest Common Denominator. (I miss 'The Blue Marble', 'The Electric Company', music channels that played music videos, 24 hour international news, TV press round-tables with actual non-token liberals.) I can give a shout out to commercial-free sports events.
