15 Classic Situations When Adults Act Like Kids

As we grow up, most of us manage to fit perfectly in the adult world. We act the expected way, we weigh our thoughts before we let them out. Mostly we manipulate and act all grown up. But occasionally we do drop our guards. We act on impulse, guided by our instincts, following not the rules but the childlike innocence.

Here is a list of fifteen classic situations that bring out the child in all of us.
