Getting hurt. When I was a kid getting hurt didn't even phase me. If I got hurt, I'd get better, and if not, I just got time out of school. Now getting hurt means missing work, filling out short term disability papers, the risk of being declined and having no income, along with the risk of permanent damage.
Funny. I'm the opposite. I was a cowardly little shit as a child. The smallest pokes and scrapes would make me whine, the smallest threats would make me cringe in fear. These days I lack proper pain tolerance as a result of my childhood but I don't fear pain anymore. It just is. and it's temporary.
