Whose comments force you to make changes in yourself more?

[Anonymous]

For me, it's the children, honestly.

I can take the vilest of insults from grown-ups, but since the comments by children are just pure in thoughts, I simply cannot choose to ignore them. And also because they are to the point. Like, dot.

A grown person you like, or is your relative, or is in a relationship with you.

Children who point things out about you in the most embarrassing way possible, publically or in person.

well, that is not true... lol

I've worked with children enough, I was a child myself...

they are not pure in thought nor on action... children do learn very early how to lie, how to manipulate, how to make others feel bad because they are as human as much as we are

"children do no wrong, and never lie" is among the most wrong approach you can ever have with kids, well if you're in education you should not do this, they deserve you to take them seriously and not just idealize them as "pure beings"

Age between 2 to 6 max. For this question. I know that children even at 6 are kind of devils in themselves. 😅

[NathanDavis]

ages two to six... that's when kids start to learn all of what I said

manipulation, lies, to hurt others... so again, you do have to take them seriously so you can help them out of these bad habits, the worse idea is to minimize it and see them as "pure angels"

also, they are the most naive at younger ages, so no... you cannot see them as the ruler for your own grown-up takes on this life, lol

Children, because most young children actually DON'T lie and they don't have any filters. I work with children Monday through Friday for my job, and they'll straight up call me fat, "too dark," ugly, or what have you. I think it's funny! I love their pure unfiltered honesty.

You work with KG, 1st, 2nd standard children?

[MCheetah]

I teach 7 through 12 year olds. I never can remember the Korean grade school to age conversion, but I do think some of them are second graders.

[Asker]

Those are exactly the ones I considered. 99% of them are innocent ones.

Comments by adults, but only if I like them or if I need their opinion.

[DailyAsk]

Why not both!

[Asker]

I know that both are possible, but one option should hold preference in your mind, right? Over the other? I want to know the preferred option.

[DailyAsk]

Then I choose adults.

👍👍

That's a great point!

[Asker]

Any thoughts? Regarding the question...

[Jamie05rhs]

My thoughts are basically that I agree with what you said. Children's opinions have a greater impact.
