I’ve done alot of mischievous and unkind things throughout my education time (k-12) I made fun of people, bullied people, stole from people/stores, hit people, kicked people, did things to annoy people, and just overall did stupid shit to cause problems all because it either felt cool or because I thought it was funny. Some of these were things I did because my friends did them, but some were just me being stupid on my own. I am now 21 and recently I have thought about all of this and feel awful about the things I’ve done because I know it has affected people. I wish I could go back and have never done any of it. Is something wrong with me? Am I a bad person?

      Its important to note that maturity doesnt automatically come with the brain fully developing. The brain being developed is a requirement for maturity though.

      I didn’t need “maturity” not to bully, bash, break stuff as kid, did you? This maturity angle does not hold water.

        You were lucky to grow up in an environment not triggering your natural human evil.

        The only reason I didn’t bully anyone was because I was bullied myself.
