The days,it's not unusual to e middle-aged men collecting Star Wars action figures,office workers wearing Hello Kitty accessories,or celebrities like David Beckham playing with Lego bricks.It's becoming more and more common to e adult taking an interest in toys,comic books and the activities that are traditionally associated with children.This phenomenon has given ri to a new word：kidult.
ist
What lies behind the phenomenonlawfirm？One is about adults' nostalgia （怀旧之情）for the carefree days of childhood,and this is especially true with today's fast-paced,stressful lifestyles.Another is about a societal change in recent decades where people are starting families later.As a result,they have more time and money to spend on themlves.Some adults could only window-shop for their dream toys when they were kids,but now they can afford that radio controlled car or high-priced doll they have always wanted.
Business have been quick to exploit the kidult trend,and the number of toy stores that target adults has rin.Companies are repackaging products from past decades and also bringing out new ones for adults.Lego,for example,has brought out an architectural ries featuring landmarks from around the world.
Society traditionally disapproves of adults who refu to put aside childhood interests,viewing the refusal as a sign of social immaturity and irresponsibility.Tho who agree with this view sometimes claim that kidults are suffering from the pop-psychology concept known as Peter Pan Syndrome,an anomaly（异常）that people remain emotionally at the level of teenagers.On a grander scale,the kidult opponents argue tha
t such delayed adulthood caus couples to marry later and have fewer children.This in turn can lead to shrinking national economies,for there needs to be a generational replenishment（补充）of the workforce.
From the standpoint of kidults,though,this phenomenon is en as nothing but harmless fun.Kidults insist that having youthful interests keeps them young,happy and creative,and their refusal to conform to society's acceptable tastes shows independent thinking.Besides,they argue that being part of the social trend of delayed adulthood is not purely a personal choice.The real caus include expensive housing,incread educational requirements for employment and poor work opportunities.
Whether the kidult phenomenon will continue to grow or prove to be a passing trend is anyone's guess.As the debate about it continues,remember that there is nothing wrong with being young at heart.
