Why do adults think they're better than children?
im not talking about parents. im talking about random strangers out in public who treat children with complete disrespect just because they're children. like one man bumps into me at a train station and says, "watch where your going!" and then does the same to an adult and says "oh, excuse me!" this has happened to me
Why do adults think that they should have control over children?
Two reasons.First, children’s brains have little idea how risky something is. That’s why a kid, asked what she would do with a stranger with a kitten, would say, “I’d just get close enough to get the kitten, and then I’d run away.” That’s why eight-year-olds attempt wheelies on their bikes or try to do stunts from CGI superhero movies. That’s why some adolescents experiment with drugs. Risky behavior, is in this sense, perfectly normal for young people. That’s why older people have to ride herd on them.The second reason has to do with the first. The novel _The Mouse That Roared_ mentions tiny Grand Fenwick’s only park. It has one path which weaves back and forth through the forest, never meeting itself, though sometimes passing so close that, if it weren’t for the carefully-kept trees, you could see people on an earlier or later section of that path. The only person who can really be said to know that part of the path is the person who has already walked it. It stands to reason, then, that the person who is somewhat ahead of you knows a little part of the path better than you, and can be a guide to you.
Do you think adults are better at waiting than children?
In my opinion, this question cannot be answered by a simple yes or a no answer. This is a question that is more subjective than objective in nature. It depends on the condition and situation of the individual in question.Take for instance if a child has ADHD, he does not have the patience to wait for long and you need to find a way for him to calm down in order for him to listen and have the patient to wait.A hungry child sometimes don't have the patience to wait.Adults also find it hard to wait in situations wherein they need immediate help or relief ie.g. A&E in the NHS nowadays will take you more than an hour to wait in order to be seen. This happened to me when my child had a very high temperature. We weren't attended immediately and we’re asked to wait which took ages.Long cue of traffic sometimes could be a source of an adult being too impatient to wait and would rather cut on someone’s lane than to wait for long.So, you see you the answer cannot be directly answered by a yes or a no because it entirely depends on the condition and the sitituation of the individual concerned. You cannot generalise whose better when it comes to waiting.
Why do children have a better imagination than adults?
Einstein had just as much veneration for imagination as he did for his own personal "spooky action" quantum physics theory. Gina Langridge's answer is on fleek for this subject.Imagination is really the ability to create abstract thought and express it without intellectual hinderance (although a degree of it goes a long way, let's say for novels and such [hidden meanings]), and children exemplify the highest degree of "ignorant artistry" seen to man (positive connotation). The ability to freshly create abstract concepts that take perspective and knock it off its heels. It also helps to know that toddlers have more neural connections than adults, that quickly begin to narrow and specify on specific marginalizes methods of thought (based on a scientific article). The cunning that comes with adulthood is much needed of course, as well as the child's plasticity; but we live in an era where many have the privelage and also can afford to be a little more creative, and frankly, adults aren't trying hard enough...
Why do adults think they are better than kids and teens?
Adults demand respect they don't deserve and I'm sick of them and I hate all adults for this. They think that know everything and yes they know more but that doesn't mean they can act all high and mighty. Who do think you are, the president? And they think that just because they're older they can skip kids in line for food. 2 days ago I was at a buffet and some 24 year old pushed me out of the way and said she was an adult so she can do that. I pushed her back and told her I don't know what kind of children you deal with but this one won't get pushed around by some washed up snot like you so back up. She tried to push me again but I pushed back and she almost fell. She deserved it.
Why do adults always think they can be rude to children, and the children can't do anything about it?
It’s hardly all adults, but with the ones that do, it’s simple: they’re bullies, and children are the easiest targets because they can’t fight back. This specific type of adult wouldn’t dare be so rude to another adult, because then they’d have to face consequences.There’s also the type of person who regards children as somehow less than human, and thus not deserving of basic respect. They seem to regard kids as some kind of talking animal, not a person with thoughts and feelings of their own.
Why was childhood so much better than my adult life?
Three things I could think of:Your parents (or guardians) are in charge, you probably take their lead and respect them for the choices they make for you. There's element of trust there. Life is more enjoyable with faith and trust.You don't worry about things in general. This is partially because #1 and because ignorance is bliss.You are not fully exposed to something called ambition. That makes people sad if they can't live up to their own (or others) expectations.Step back and see if you are not happy, most probably you will get some hint in above three points.
Why do adults think that if they pretend sex doesn't exist then kids won't do it?
I think it is because they dont want to face reality that it is out there and that they need to talk to their kids about it. If they pretend its not there then they are trying to hide the fact that their kids might be having sex. Like with my older brother my mom and dad didnt want to talk to him about sex because they didnt think he was having it and he was 16. well about 6 months after he hooked up with this girl the girl told him that she was pregnant and my parents had a hard time with that because they thought that if they didnt say anything about it then we wouldnt know. My parents have told me and my little brother not to have sex but they didnt give us the "sex talk" or anything so yeah. Kids are going to do it sooner or later so i think parents should just talk to their kids sooner rather then later.
