A world without adults sounds like heaven to kids but could lead to big problems later.
At one point in our lives we've all wished that there weren't any "grown-ups", but now that we are older we all (mostly everyone) realizes how much we depend on adults in our day-to-day life style.
Adults are our ultimate goals of life once you think about it, so a world without adults would be totally hectic. No adults would mean no rules , and yes I know there are those some kids who follow every direction perfectly and never question it. But without any adults to set rules to follow . There wouldn't be any reason to be "that kid". So honestly I think that a world without adults would be SOOO hectic and just pure craziness. I mean some kids can't even control themselves when their teacher walks out of the room for 2 minutes. So I could only imagine what kids would do if they lived with 0 adults.

"sometimes people are born with disabilities, but it's communities that handicap them"- Anonymous
While reading the story The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time by Mark Haddon , I noticed the struggles of Christopher and the way he was treated by different members of his community. Some embraced his "handicap" and helped him thrive , while others used it to hold him back.
I agree with the statement , I think that those who are born or live with disabilities are often babied by society. We tend to do things for them with the assumption that they can't or won't be able to do it correctly. When possibly give the opportunity they may not be able to thrive in all areas but could probably do a lot more than we first thought they could. I think that everyone has some degree of handicap in some area , they may just not know it yet. The community may not be intentionally holding the person back but in their efforts to "help" them they are actually hurting them by not giving them the chance to try.
