Those people are children, entire families (and thus out of context of this discussion), and children.

Adults do not grow out of stuff. That is the standard connotation of the word 'growing'.

But, of course, we are having this conversation in properly spelt (if not properly capitalized), grammatically correct (aside from that pesky capitalization thing) English, so, obviously you know that, so I am through being trolled by you.

yes not using proper capitalisation on fs means I am a troll. I couldn't possibly be on a tablet or just not give a crap.

you are /so mad/ that someone dared to use a turn of phrase you are determined to read as implying comics are immature

You are embarrassing.

So what is personal, spiritual, economic growth, et al?

There are lots of ways to use the word growth without referring to the passage between childhood and adulthood. You are ignoring that and being extremely superior and snobby in regards to non-native English speakers and/or people with learning disabilities so you can continue to be insulted by something that isn't actually insulting.

Do you know any adults? They 'grow out of' hobbies on a regular basis, in the sense that they have changed and are no longer interested in the thing they used to be interested in. That does not imply that the thing they were interested in was wrong or childish to begin with.

Do you think that people hit some magical point in their late teens/early '20s where, suddenly, all growth ceases?

We continue to grow, even after we've become adults. We never stop growing. You have taken your preferred interpretation of a word and phrase that can have many and used it to deny this fact. And the condescension over the fact that everyone is speaking in English only makes it worse -- many words in English have multiple meanings, as is the case in all languages.

You weren't trolled. You were the troll.
