@HebrideanHecate @Flick I'm all for people following their hobbies and pursuits. What's interesting is the number of adults who seem to be stuck in a form of childhood. I think we saw this with Disney when it started to abandon its core group of families with young children and started to appeal more to young adults who grew up with Disney and never left childhood. In teaching I met no end of young teachers who knew no songs unless they came from Disney films, who knew no folk tales except the Disney version.
I think it's a manifestation of a fear of the adult world. It's why we have this culture of safetyism and emotional harm; we're having to pander to people who can't/won't take responsibility for decisions (like adults have to do) because they fear getting it wrong.
