If you had to pick one age to be permanently, which age would you choose? Why?
15 - It is such a sweet spot where you're just realizing yourself and the person you will become begins to emerges. At 15 you're old enough that you get the freedom to go out on a Friday night, you can get a job to buy the thing you want and everyone is still car-free so hanging out entails locations you can walk or ride your bike to. There is certainly a lot of angst at that age, but that's half the fun too.
