It is very dificult to get people discusing their dreams with friends and relatives, but if you can remember when you were a kid it was very easy to share your dreams with your fellow kids, what normally happens such that when we grow up we are afraid to to about our dreams to friends and relatives, is there something special in kids that enables them to discuss their dreams than adult

I think the dreams children share are not usually the ones they follow when they grow up. To have a dream as an adult means you really want to reach that goal. It is a personal goal and someone may not want to discuss it for fear of ridicule or misunderstanding. Other people may think it's a bad idea or they may think that person does not have the capabilities to achieve what they dream of.
Everyone has to go on their own personal journey through life.

I see, so you worry more of what people might think of. your idea is yours whether good or bad nobody will will ever changed it. Haven't you had that it took Thomas Edison 999 times just coming up with light, Majority knew that he had failed 999 times but to him he just did 999 to get his final results. Lastly children dreams are also genuine, that's why if a child wants something whether you can afford it they don't care and you have to pay the price to whatever a child wants, adults dream also come with a huge price that most of us just find it to difficult to carry.

Do you think that it's still possible to achieve these dreams in our current environment, when we were growing up we believe we could have everything in life but as you put it, it's the environment this has since changed and the realities are daring at us, and that is why we dare not discuss them

I have no problem discussing my dreams. The problem is I don't remember most of them, but when I do actually remember a dream I usually always tell my wife about it if it strange, happy, or sad.
