Eddy and Junior are shopping at the store where Lily works.
Please don't make me try on clothes, Dad.
But you need new clothes. Just put on these jeans.
Fine.
Junior tries on the pair of jeans and shows Eddy.
I hate these jeans.
Why? Let's ask Lily what she thinks. They look great! Right，Lily?
They're Ok.
But I like my old pants.
Your old pants are too small. You're growing up so fast!
Well, maybe I don't want to grow up! I like being a kid.
He's right.Growing up is terrible.
You have to get a job and work for people you don't like.
Lily's boss walks by and tells her that she needs to speak to her alone.
Lily, you haven't sold anything this month.If you don't sell something today, then I'll have to fire you.
Lily walks back to Junior and Eddy.
Did I say growing up is terrible? I was wrong.Growing up is great.
Why?
You're be cool and you can hang out with cool people.
Can I hang out with you when I grow up?
Maybe.
Wow, I can't wait to grow up!
So…Does that mean you want the new jeans?
Yes!And I want that T-shirt too. And that jacket.
Of course! What's the total, Lily?
$150.
What?
I don't want to you grow up, Junior .It's too expensive!
小學生朱朱不肯買新衣服是因爲他不想長大。中學生莉莉也說長大是一件糟糕的事情。
我記得我小時候可是迫不及待地渴望長大的，特別是在十歲以後，有了自己的思想，每當和父母嘔氣，覺得委屈時，總是在想：我怎麼還不長大？我什麼時候才能長大？
我要遠離父母，我要自己想幹嘛就幹嘛，再也沒有人對我管頭管腳，指手畫腳…
可當我堪堪長到成年時，在街上看到孕婦挺着大肚子，拎着嬰兒用品時，那一刻，又十分害怕長大，長到足夠大。一想到終有一日，我也要結婚生子，就不寒而慄。
小時候，我們要爲父母活，結婚生子後，要爲孩子活，責任重大，不敢任性。
所以，真正能夠自由自在，只爲自己而活的，其實只有從讀大學到結婚前，這短暫的一段歲月，可惜，美好的事物總是不能長久。
這大概也是現在的年輕人無限延長談戀愛的時光的原因之一吧？
時間不以人的意志爲轉移，無論想不想長大，我們都會長大，扛起我們該負的責任。
曹同志常常感慨：如果CJL不長大就好了，小時候多乖多聽話多依賴父母！不像現在說什麼都不聽，還動不動批評你！
艾迪說對了：長大是一件很貴的事情！
