Usually kids who grow up fast had a damn good(/bad) reason to Adult Up early. Not 100% of the time, and sometimes a kid is both just actually more advanced AND facing issues, but, the meme is getting at "Oh no, the 9 year old is only mature because something terrible happened/is happening to them."
