If not killing plants is the criterion of a responsible adult, then I don't qualify.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I married someone who keeps the plants alive. That probably doesn't count does it?

I'm in my robe, no bra, no shower - headed to karate, so will have to dress in my gi. Then home for a shower, not washing my hair cause I'm getting it colored tonight. After work I see my chiropractor then off to my hair gal. Wheeeee!

Sometimes plants die even if you do everything right. That's no measure of anything.
What I mean to say is - all those criteria for Being a Responsible Adult only work in the positive sense. Not doing any of them doe snot make you not a responsible adult. They are sufficient but not necessary conditions.

And work just took a turn and no karate for me, so no bra until after a quick shower.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
I keep most of my plants alive, but I'm not doing much of anything on the kids front. In my case, not having kids was the responsible choice, though.

Because books.
Not doing any of them doe snot make you not a responsible adult.
This is true, but also? I really like "doe snot" as something to say when I'm mad. "Doe snot, that sucks!"

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
Crap, can't keep plants alive. The kids are still alive, so there is that.
If we're making a choice of one or the other, I call this the responsible choice.
