Do any of you wish your childhood was better than it was?

I wish my childhood was much better than it was. Though if it were, I probably wouldn't be a writer/author, as I wrote to get away from everything bad about my childhood.

I wouldn't want to change much although I think I could have done with having more company and learning to interact better with my peers.

My childhood was great until I was 13 and lost both of my parents. Other than that, there's nothing about my childhood I'd want to change.

Even if I wished to change anything, it's all gone and wishful thinking.

I had a great childhood I got to see the world and had great parents.

My parents separated when I was 8 months old and things were a bit a bit chaotic, lots of moving around from Texas to Florida, to Ohio and back to Texas, many schools, yet it made me able to meet new people easily since I was always the new kid. Perhaps it made me a bit of a loner as well.

My childhood wasn't great but it wasn't as bad as some had it so I am grateful for what I did have. My father was verbally and mentally abusive to my sister and I-he called us his slaves and he meant it. However, it did make me who I am today and for that I am also very grateful because I like who I am. I have vowed to be a great mother and never treat my kids the way I was treated-and I have been successful in that aspect. =)

I wish my childhood had been better.

I had a pretty good childhood, good parents, an older sister and younger brother, lots of friends. I don't think there would have been anything I changed

maybe a couple things here and there, but overall it was good.

Yes there are a few things I could do without, like my arc nemesis, jealous classmates, a few bad teachers, and some bullies. But that's okay I got them straight. Let's see there's a few others, a nagging grandmother, a fussing grandmother and grandfather, but overall my situation was perfect for me because I got to be free and express myself the way I wanted!!!

There is nothing to change...I had fun in childhood and have lot of memories :)

I wish my childhood were happy as all people mention it here. My parents are both so strict like it was a military rules inside the house I can't forget when my father used to hang me upside down while he keeps hitting me with his belt. I also blame myself because I didn't follow the house rules. We live near the beach but they didn't want us to even near. When we reach our adulthood things change. My parents are getting old and house rules also change. They are now loving and sweet to both of us. I never enjoy my childhood days. I wish I could have a time machine so I could go back time and change it.

nice discussion... hmmmm... well... when i was younger, i had a lot of i wish like this, i wish like that in my childhood but looking at myself now, i realize that there's a reason why God gave me that situation in my childhood days. maybe a late realization but atleast God made me see clearly now.. and because of that for me i don't want to change anything in my childhood days..

there is no use rectifying the childhood we had.

I wouldn't change anything about my childhood, I was quite happy.

I like my childhood and I used to enjoy a lot.

My childhood was different. It could have been better.
