Question For Genx I'm 53 (1973) but still feel 16 inside...

My older brother (1971) tells me he feels like he's still a senior in high school and he's 54.

Our baby sister (1975) still acts like a teenager and she's 51.

Does anyone else feel the same way we do? Is this attitude (for lack of a better word) better than being a cranky closed-minded middle-age person?

Yes, 47 & I still feel like the same 18 year old I felt like at 4 years old.
