SnivyAlchemist Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 In order to have Bionicles in the first place, I would need to buy the ones that I never owned and buy back the ones I owned since (unless my Lego bin is in the garage) I lost all of my Legos and Bionicles (though at that point, they're pretty much just bits and parts now). I am sixteen, so that may or may not mean that I still have time to buy them back before I go to college and fully engage with this community over it.

Feather Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Well when it comes to all of the sets I owned before 2015, they're in a bag somewhere all taken apart with 70% of the pieces lost, and the bag is filled with real skull spiders that try to latch onto my face and take over my brain so they could lay eggs there so I probably won't be doing with anything with those.. ever.. but all of the sets I have now I'll just keep them, luckily my partner is also into Bioniclez so I would never get asked to get rid of them by someone who's opinion on what I can do or not as an adult at some point or another actually matters to me, and I'll probably keep loving Bionicle even long after I'm too old to like that kind of stuff.. actually most people think I already am too old for that, but who cares about their opinions right? Long story short: I'll never stop keeping 'em. Quote This sig isn't 100% correct, because I talk way too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would only do that if I really needed the money for something.Trendy? I thought it was mature to do so. Not really. A big part of maturity is being able to recognize that you are 100% responsible for the choices you make in your life, and the consequences of those decisions. For some, that might mean getting rid of childhood relics to signify a new direction in life. But it's no less mature to continue to enjoy the things you once loved, while at the same time recognizing that it might affect how others perceive you. Neither course of action is wrong or "less mature"—they're just different ways of taking on adulthood. 8 Quote Formerly Lyichir: Rachira of Influence Aanchir's and Meiko's brother Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maturity is an archaic term that means several different things. I think we should all care more about whether a person is a good moral influence rather than whether they're collecting childhood items. Memories/mementos, in a sense. Maturity should be measured by morality and how a person treats others rather than something as trivial as a hobby. People who are willing to judge a person based on their hobby are obviously immature as they self-righteously determine others to be.

doodleloot Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 (edited) That is, of course, assuming having children is a future goal.It should be, else who will take care of the person who has no children in their old age? I really don't think that having children must be everyone's goal in life. If you want to have children that's fine, and if you don't that's just as fine. I also don't think that you should expect your children to take care of you when you're old. They will have lives of their own that'll come with enough problems. Another part of maturity is being able to pack up your toys for storage (for your future kids) once you are an adult. You're saying that like you're obliged as a parent to give your old toys to your children.But assuming I wanted to give my old toys to my future children, why would I have to put them into storage for the meantime? I don't really see your point. Edited July 16, 2015 by doodleloot Quote Hail Denmark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(That also seems like a very selfish and dehumanizing reason to have kids but that's just me.) I know about senior care, and wasn't referencing it at all. I just think that a child should still have a (mutual) love and respect for their parents even when they're grown ups. And no, I'm not saying you should have kids if you don't want to. (But if you did have kids, wouldn't you want them to help you out if something happened to you in the future? i.e. an injury, financial problems, or something?)

fishers64 Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 IMO you should take care of your own problems and not expect others to do so. If you rely on other people to fix stuff, and don't pay them for it, your problems will not get fixed. They will become worse, and people will get mad at you for not fixing them. As for childhood toys, the odds are good that if I had kids, they would not appreciate my childhood toys. They will have their own tastes and interests, as well they should. Trying to get them to appreciate my tastes and interests to the exclusion of their own is a classic and stupid parenting mistake. 5 Quote Hero Factory RPG | Bionicle Mafia XXIX: Storyline & Theories Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
