A real conversation would be hard because it would be about what part of the anatomy dictates behavior and how and then on how environmental factors change the biological hardware that dictates behavior and how. If it’s not in the language of hard science and real biology it’s just pulling theories out of your ass that mean nothing.

Start with a specific like frontal lobe development

@jwb I admire your perseverance man

It shouldn’t be taught that way. You can oversimplify things for children but you shouldn’t do it if the oversimplification makes it incorrect.

It would be much more admirable to see the question beyond the perspective of a third grader.

the **** are you talking about? The more generic/mainstream it is, the easier it is to convey on a lay person level. The more specific you get the more expertise you need. Neither of us are qualified to do so. But I know enough generic science to be confident in everything I've said thus far and I can back it up with sources if need be. None of it is my own speculation.

It would, you should strive for that

**** you, Marie

I suggested frontal lobe development.

thank you. And now I see him saying "they spl shouldn't teach it that way"... Ok OH the whole world is wrong and you're right. I'm working 12 hour shifts. Perseverance? Yeah I don't have time for this ****.

God forbid you be expected to discuss biology when you start a thread about biology.
