Subject: What time period do you wish you were in?
Written By: Ralph_E_Fresh on 07/08/13 at 6:12 pm
Here they are, Kid(3-9), Preteen(10-13) Teen(13-18) Young Adult(18-26)
For me, Kid(3 to 9), would stay the same where I grew up, 1997-2003, late 90s and Early 2000s was a great childhood, especially 1998 and 1999.
Preteen, Would have loved to been preteen from 1993-1996, when we had movies like 3 ninjas etc.
Teen in mid 80s, Goonies, Karate Kid style or Late 90s early 2000s, Why? because as a kid back then I was jealous of my older neighbors, remember the Backstreet Boy/NSYNC craze? I wanted to be about their age, which was Teen/Young Adult.
Young Adult, Don't know, really don't.

Do we get to go back to that age, but still know what we know now? ???

Yup, you get to take the Sports almanac from "Back to the Future II" with you. ;D

I would also like to go back to Kid 3-9 and wondered what would've happened If I hadn't snipped a chunk of my hair back when I was small? ???

Good point.
I would be a young adult in the late 80s/early 90s as apposed to being a pre-teen like I actually was. But I would have to know the knowledge that I know now ;)

I've got the feeling the 60s and the 70s were nice eras to live in as a teenager, lots of happiness and freedom - same goes for the late 80s/early 90s. :)
*wishes I was born just a couple of years earlier - I turned 10 in 1991*
Edit: notices suddenly I'm saying partly the same as the one before me. ;D

Pre-teen back in the mid-90s.
Back when Nickelodeon was still good, Michael Jackson was alive, and my life was easier. ;D

Hmm this is hard. Honestly, sometimes I wish I had been born about 10-25 years earlier just so I could've really experienced the 80's and 90's (my top 2 fave decades!). I would've loved to have been either a kid/pre-teen/teen/young adult in the mid to late 80s (oh, all the concerts I could've gone to!) or a pre-teen/teen in the 90s.

I wish I were born in the early 1950s, so I could have experienced all that great music from the 1960s (Beatles, Stones, The Who, Kinks, Turtles, CCR, etc..) and 1970s and attended concerts, etc..
I would have purchased a house when it was cheap, and be close to retirement today.
Missed it by 10 years.

Could you have met Michael back then?

For me I also enjoyed being a kid in the late 90s/early 2000s, but if I had to pick another era I'd say the 80s as I think the 80s had the coolest toys.
I'd most like to be a teen in the early 90s, being the grunge head that I am. My 2nd choice though would probably be the late 60s, as I love the music of that time and that era (along with the 70s) inspired the 90s which are my favourite decade.
Overall, I feel like I should've been born in the mid to late 70s.

The 1970's period of the disco and funk era.

I would like to have been born twenty years earlier (1971 instead of '91). That way, I could be an '80s teen and a '90s young adult. I'm not a fan of '80s fashion, but I could live with it since the music from that period more than made up for it.

The 90s--wish I could live through that decade all over again.
The 60s also seemed cool.
