The id is the inner child so to speak, not the adult. Terminology aside, I am not a big fan of focusing on this part of ourselves. The id exists in everyone and everyone's is shaped by childhood experiences, but we can not give into it. Whatever traumas we experienced the real goal is to reach our fullest potential as the adults we have become. You can acknowledge and accept your past, but you can't change it. You can only change the present and future. Indulging our "inner child" doesn't seem healthy and is avoidant of what's happening right now.
