Bow Wow Shares With Social Media His Crippling Fears About Adulthood

"I'm afraid to tackle on things like marriage, a family."

Adulting ain't easy, just ask Mr. Moss.

On Wednesday night (May 22),  Bow Wow had a few things to get off his chest in regards to growing up. The rapper and actor took to his Instagram stories to admit he's somewhat caught in between childhood and adulthood.

  • "I have some maturing to do! What am I afraid of? I'm 32 but afraid to tackle on adult life things like marriage [and] a family. It's hard," the father of one revealed.

    "To be honest I'm scared! I think about these things. Is it because I've seen a lot.. or am I really nervous about taking on the grown man role and simply acting my age and growing the f*** up," Bow Wow asked his followers.

  • This past year's been a rough road for Bow Wow, who opened up back in August via Twitter to reveal he'd recently lost a child, his son.

    "Every girl I have my heart to it failed. My dad is an alcoholic and is now sick. I lost my son this year! I'm over everything. Mentally I feel detached, I'm in so much pain."

    On the brighter side of things, just last month, papa Bow was all smiles while celebrating daughter Shai's eighth birthday alongside ex Joie Chavis. The two-day celebration included everything from partying and dancing, to an "All Girl's Night," which Bow was sure to crash before getting the boot!

As one commenter pointed out, when it comes to our problems, "The first step is admitting it."
