I don't understand the romanticism for childhood. Being a child sucks ass. Being an adult can be hard for sure but overall it's much better. Humans weren't meant to live with zero autonomy. Not even children.

Not every parent removes all autonomy from their child. Sorry that happened to you, sounds like it sucked.

It's not even necessarily about parents though. Schools are the worst offenders.
