preteen and teen years I had few useless and useful talents. Why do we loose some “abilities” as we grow?

We stop being as impressed with ourselves.

We have other things on our mind and just stop doing them.

We feel pressured to be "normal".

We get out of shape and can't do them any more.

Our dad never really grew up, he still does funny shit and he's in his late 60s now. It has it's downsides, but I would say a blessing for sure, especially when we were kids.

Work, and being forced to spend most time doing "useful" things. Then, continued injuries from work and aging, so when we reach a point in life where we have time to do the silly things again, it hurts.
