ummmm... I'm kind of lost. I wasn't ever a "child". Never considered myself to be a child, neither did anyone else. My family (parents, grandparents, aunt and uncles) always praised me for being so mature.

My aunt and uncles were strangely (when I look back now) proud of my maturity ~ regularly drinking and smoking pot with me, starting back in Chicago. So, I was younger than 7 years old when that began.
