You're still in school and don't work full time (full time work is nothing like school so dont even try comparing them). You don't have the independence to go anywhere you want at any time. You don't have the pressures of living by yourself and paying your own bills. You don't have the same expectations placed on you that an adult does.
It's very easy for you to claim all this stuff because you have no idea what the other side is like lol. i'm not saying you or your relationships are childish. I'm saying they're not the same as they will be when you're an adult.
Those are understandable points, thanks for clearing that up. However, I wasn't really comparing school with work. I know that work is a hell of a lot worse because I had dealt with some of the stufftiest, most irresponsible managers back at my old job and had to force myself to ignore them for the sake of the money. I have been trying to claim that independence for a while now, though.
I pay for most of my things nowadays with the money I earn other than the basic necessities that my parents provide. I look forward to moving in with a friend (who is an ex member of this community) once I turn 18 and finish high school so that we could get an advantage in life for a bit until we're ready to go completely solo.
Soon I'll be paying for car insurance so I'll have to look for a better job that pays better. So lately, I've been trying to focus on moving into adult-hood, basically summed up. So I understand some of what you're saying by experience.
