Anjali - It's Adultish, Not Childish

 So we were discussing something and I said that these people were behaving very childishly. Anjali didn't agree. 'I don't know why they call it childish,' she said. 'Children would never behave that way.'

Hmm. She had a point. Children don't behave that way really.

'It should be called adultish,' she said. 'Only adults behave like that.'

I get it. Only adults can behave like adults do. We can never ever behave like children do. Any act that is below adult cannot be childish - it can only sink further to adultish.

Agreed AJ (as Pallavi calls her these days).
