That you are the product of your childhood?

Would you changed anything and why?

Nope. I guess I've been quite lucky in my upbringing. Even though my parents divorced when I was young and they weren't aleays nice to each other they worked hard to move is to a good area with good schools etc. We got what we wanted but weren't spoiled, we knew the value of things.

Yes, most definitely. My childhood taught me not to trust anyone and that the people who should take care of me won't.

If I changed it then I wouldn't be the person I am now.

While I agree that aspects of your childhood certainly influence you for the rest of your life I think people can change and choose their own path.

Unfortunately my childhood taught me that you must live each day as if it was your last , laugh a lot , live a lot and love a lot

Yes very much so and the older one becomes the more apparent it is within families that childhood patterns among siblings rarely change and behaviours learnt then are deeply ingrained.

But how does that relate to you as an adult?

I would go further than saying we are a product of our childhood

We are a poroduct of our past.....all of it.

Or more precisely, we are a product of how we chose to react to our past, that is what shapes us our choices and decisions our reactions

I'm sure someone more eloquent could explain it better

I know the value of things and live in a good area

Disagree, I think it's a lifelong process, so many events have changed who I am, not all in childhood

The foundation of ourselves comes from childhood experiences.

Some of us have had to reinforce those foundations.

No. I'm a product of my time away from home at university and beyond. I didn't grow up until I left.

My Dad dies when I was in my early teens. If I could change anything, I'd have kept him alive for longer. I learned so much in the few years we had I can't but wonder what another 10 - 15 years would have brought.

I think as adults we make our own choices regardless of our child's hood

my early days where days i try not to remember, my dad was an alcoholic, as a child I had nothing not even a bed to sleep in, my dad sold everything to buy booze, when he had money it was ok cause he'd just go out when he didn't have money he was very violent, we was put into care and spend around a year being ping ponged round care and foster homes till my gran got custody of us

Regardless I have turned out ok, I think I've given my kids a good life, I've worked hard to provide everything they need

i suppose it depends how strong a person you are some people will let what happens to them as a child dictate their life a some will take their life's back

Nothing, I had a wonderful and free childhood. One before technology and instant news of bad things happening to children far away. One where my parents felt confident to let me play, sometimes all day and out of sight.

I feel saddened that this is often not the case for many children today!

Most definitely, unfortunately my mother wouldn't agree as she has this fairytale ideal that really doesn't fit in with me
