English Language & Usage Asked by naiveai on February 5, 2021
In casual conversation, one is often told to "Grow up!", ie be more mature and more like an adult. What would be the most accurate phrase to express the opposite sentiment – you need to loosen up, embrace your inner child, appreciate the fun in activities usually seen as frivolous, etc?
"Have some fun!" or "Live your life!" have the meaning of what you want, but don't explicitly imply an age. "Act your age" would only make sense in the right context. I specifically remember "Be a kid for once" from somewhere (maybe a TV show)that would be appropriate for this.
