" I fought growing up so hard. I did not want to grow up." This quotes summarizes Bobby's life. Bobby has a hard time growing up because he is not used to having responsibilities.

Another reason is because it probably feels childish knowing that he has a kid but he is going into a place that is mainly for children. If it were not for Feather, Bobby probably would not have come of age but he has and that is a very good
