Growing Up

What happens to innocence? What turns kids who just wanted to go outside and play on the weekend into kids who want to stay inside and drink on the weekend? What makes kids go from laughing to swearing, dancing to having sex? What makes kids who thought smoking was "stupid" start smoking?

At what point do these changes happen?

Each and every one of us was once an innocent child. Every pot head, every criminal, every high school dropout was once an innocent child.

I remember when I used to go outside and play Power Rangers with my friends, and that was the best time I could possibly have. Now look at me. What happened?
