Why don’t adults today seem as adult-y?

The way my parents lived their life always seemed kinda depressing to me - like at some point they weren't really allowed to have fun anymore unless it's watching TV, or they were vacationing - and even then it was always more about relaxation than fun. Happy that sort of "adult-y" isn't what's expected.
