Childhood and maturity

I think that there is a point in adulthood when we can cast a bright light on the habits of personality that we developed in childhood, and accept them for the parts that are self-sustaining, instead of rejecting them as "things" we need to change in order to find happiness and balance as adults. We each have our own coping mechanisms, and we each have our own timeframe for putting childish things behind us, and moving on.
