No responsibilities.

But the best time of life is university. Low (but not no) responsibilities, lots of free time, lots of independence, enough people to find your true friends.

I don't find responsibility to be that bad compared to having zero control over my life. In fact some responsibilities can be quite rewarding. I like helping people who I care about.

Plus I still had responsibilities as a child it was just pointless bullshit instead of real stuff. So many hours wasted on homework...

But you only need control if your life sucks and you need to change it. So for anyone with a happy childhood, that is going to be a tiny or nonexistent factor.
