Childish vs Childlike

_Elsa_

Now Elsa shares the differences between both of them. 

‘Childlike - Being childlike is someone who is imaginary, visionaries, and has the creativity of an innocent child. They carry the positive qualities of a child. They are just as honest as a child. They follow their dreams and believe in themselves. They beam the light of a child and resembles an innocent child. They carry good behavior and respects everyone despite their race, religion, culture, background, and career status. Childlike people are sweet, gentle, and pure of heart. They have the heart of a pure child. They apologize if they ever did something wrong.

Childish - Being childish is when you come up with immature behavior and get mad or throw tantrums because you didn’t get things your way. You become easily offended and triggered when someone challenges you or has a different opinion than you and doesn’t agree with what you're saying. Childish is when you think yelling will make you right at what you're saying. People would call someone “childish” in a negative way, because of their unreasonable and rude behavior. We don’t want a partner who is childish, right? We don’t want to marry a man-child or woman-child, right? No one wants to be with a childish person because they are stubborn, annoying and get easily mad. You find them annoying and irritating. Everyone would find them annoying and irritating.’ (Source) 

“So what you are saying is this,” says Chewy. “We can be childlike as adults by doing similar things to what children do right? So if I wanted to color a picture, do a jigsaw puzzle or blow bubbles that wouldn’t be considered childish right?” 

Elsa smiles and shakes her head that Chewy understands the difference. Then she recalls the movie about Peter Pan and Tinkerbell. 

Let’s continue - I won’t grow up!
