If you grew up as a sheltered child, this list may apply to you.

1. You ruin someone's childhood every day.

I'm sorry, but how does my not seeing Aladdin ruin YOUR childhood?

2. You're out of the loop in conversations.

What are these words you're speaking? SpongeBob? Harry Potter? Whaaa??

3. You understand more than you're given credit for and your default face becomes this:

Friends may feel the need to explain everything in case you don't know.

4. You shock people with your ability to be normal.

5. Standard lists don't apply to you.

"12 Things Every 90s Kid experienced"....you've experienced two.

6. Friends can't wait to introduce you to new things.

I remember when I had my first caffeinated pop.

7. Your friends also think they completely understand your childhood.

8. Your social media looked like this:

9. Your friends never understood why everything was such a big deal.

One does not simply sneak out.

10. Also, begging was never an option.

10. Purchasing sugary foods never loses its thrill.

This little boy is your spirit animal.

If you identified with this list, you may be realizing that although a sheltered childhood was rough at times, you are thankful for the sound head on your shoulders and the ability to amuse your friends with the vast list of Disney animated classics that you haven't seen. A sheltered childhood is not so bad after all.
