Anyone who knows me will know that even though I'm 22, I still love "childish" things such as Disney, Hello Kitty, Miffy, Sanrio, Moomins and watching films that are "made for kids".
For me, it's a form of escapism. Sometimes, things get too hard for me to cope so stepping back into a part of my childhood helps a lot. It allows me to unwind and feel a sense of safety.
I've seen too many people say that their families don't understand it but I've been really fortunate when it's come to mine who are all extremely supportive about it and even encourage it. My father is turning 58 later this month and is a big kid at heart.
Never reject your inner child. There's absolutely nothing wrong with loving things that are "childish" and in no way does it make you immature or stupid. Don't listen to anyone who tells you otherwise.
