US slang that references childhood:

Cooties are an imaginary affliction from childhood.

When children reach the age where they notice the sexes are different the children claim a member of the opposite opposite sex will give you "cooties" if they touch you.

Its a way of little girls telling other little girls not to play with boys and vice versa

Where the opposite sex had cooties, pokemon was life,a kiss made the pain go away,the ice cream man was God,green veggies were the devil,finger panting and nap time went hand-n-hand.

Someone who feels an intense desire for thrills and spills to offset unpleasant memories, usually from childhood.

I word that was given true meaning by JK Rowling in the legendary book Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.

The stricking feeling one gets of childhood nostalgia. Remembering something from childhood with longing.

A Channel that used to be a good network for Disney cartoons like Brandy and Mr. Whiskers, The Proud Family, Dave the Barbarian, Buzz on Maggie, The Emperor's New School, American Drangon Jake Long and Lilo and Stitch.

But Now it's Channel full of reality sitcom crap like Hannah Montana, Jonas Brothers, Sonny with a Chance, Suite Life and Cory in the House.

The only good and animated show that comes on at an appropriate time on Disney is Phineas and Ferb. I'm not going to lie. It's an awesome show and it's funny and cute.

Disney Channel used to have so many cartoons for me and my kid cousins to watch together, but now those moronic executives think stuff like singing brats like Hannah and Jonas and Constant laugh tracks will be good.

It's not. I just wish it would show just go back into a toon network for sweet kids so it can be worth watching again. They don't need Playhouse Disney. It's for babies.

The situation regarding the realization that the care-free years of life are gone and repetitive responsibility lies ahead; occurs mainly during the pre-job, post-collegiate years.
