What you described is percieved as childish behaviour but perhaps it is just human behaviour. How many old people do you know who want an ice cream and get a strop if they dont get one? I have known a few, We dont lose out behaviour we just learn to curb it (or not whatever the case maybe). We just add mpre behaviours as we move through various phases but we keep them all.
None of us will ever know it all but some people like to ask more questions than others, this is not about age but personality.

One of my daughters (16) was watching a programme about a tribe in Namibia and was totally 'in there' when her older sister (22) came in and said 'why are you watching this shit?' this happend half and hour ago and then they broke into a 'toddlers' spat. My most intelligent daughter has been ranting about wanting chocolate cake for the past hour and now she is forcing me off the computer and now we are both bickering as equal teenagers (whilst I try to write something semi-intelligent of course).
Ohmygosh, you have that problem, too? My 24-year-old son and 21-year-old daughter still live with us, and they still play "peek-a-boo" with each other, and chase each other around the apartment! And the daughter and I still get into those snippy, "teenage" arguements; it's like putting two feisty cats in a trash can, and welding the lid shut.

Good luck to ya!

Oh, by the way, my daughter's a chocolate freak, too, and gets VERY cranky when she craves it, and there's none around. O.O
