The author reflects on their journey to adulthood and how having a baby at 40 changed their perspective on maturity and responsibility.

And it was all down to one life-changing event – having a baby. In my life before becoming a parent, I could come and go as I pleased. I could be as fun, spontaneous and as selfish as I liked. In fact, work aside, my lifestyle at 38 wasn’t that dissimilar to my lifestyle at 18.
We get up everyday to attend a job because we have bills to pay.
