That's a tough one!

Childhood is intrinsically better, no contest here. A that age, humans have not been corrupted yet by human culture and society's brainwashing.

But the downside is you don't really realize it until you are an adult.

So adulthood could be in some cases a good thing when you are intelligent/wise enough to "understand" some things and not be sucked in human culture and such brainwashing. At the same time if you are weak minded, adulthood is the worst as it's the time you can totally become submitted to human culture or religion or politics and start justifying horrible things in the name of politics or religion.
