when I grow up, by Casper

[flea]

Casper: When I am 18, will I be able to cross the street by myself?
mr. flea: Yes.
Casper: I can't wait to be 18! I will go to college, and cross the street by myself, and have my own place!

(One of these things is not like the others!)

Awesome!

My version when I was a kid was, "I'm going to cross the street by myself when you and daddy die."

Morbid from youth, evidently. Good thing my folks just laughed. (And laughed and laughed, apparently.)

Hey, mine is really traumatized by the idea of having to leave home at some point, so I'd say you're doing well ("I don't really have to move out of this house ever, do I?" "Well, you know, I can't promise that we'll live here forever. Like, if your dad or I had to take a job somewhere else. And when you get older, you might want to move out." "I will NEVER want to move away!")
