People Talk About Their Opinions That Changed When They Grew Up

It's inevitable for most of us that our opinions on life will change as we get older. As we travel through the innocence of youth right through to the "Old Man Yells At Cloud" stage, anyone with more than half a brain cell will have numerous experiences that make them stop and think about how they view things. 

Sometimes it's something deep, a complete shakeup of your life philosophy. Other times it's the realization that damn, leaving all the lights on in the house is expensive. Either way, it all makes a difference to how we decide to live. This is what Redditors have recently been discussing, after an AskReddit queried how peoples' points of view had changed upon reaching adulthood. The range of responses only goes to prove that we're all on one big learning curve. We might not always choose our circumstances, but we can choose what to take from them.
