Living on Borrowed Interests

I feel like the reason we aren't born as fully formed adults but rather grow up is because we are all supposed to define who we are. Our sex, our body parts and our looks are all decided for us; creating our own identities is the only thing we have control of after we are born. From birth we are constantly manipulated by others and the circumstances we find ourselves in. Our parents train us to be members of society but no one can train us to become who we are supposed to be.
