This is one of my favorite parts of raising kids. They are full of questions, and if you are patient and thoughtful you can really blow their minds while enriching them at the same time.

And you never talk to kids, like they're kids. You answer them, like You would an adult.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 3 months ago

Yeah, sure, within reason. I don't even talk to all adults the same way.

It's why I want more kids. The questions are glorious.

My son asked me the other night before bed: "Dad, what did refrigerators in Texas look like?"

I could have laughed very hard, but from his point of view, it was hotter in Texas, and it was 30 years ago when I lived there.

I said "Well, refrigerator technology hasn't really changed in a very, very, long time. They actually looked exactly the same as the refrigerator in the kitchen. But if I had to guess, you thought it may be different because it was long ago, and Texas was hotter right?"

"yeah!"

"Well, then that was a very smart question - you could notice a potential difference, and rather than assume, you asked. "

It's so much fun raising these tiny intelligent beings. It's like a home grown AI that isn't artificial

like a home-grown Artificial Intelligence that isn’t artificial.

What a wild sentence to end on lmao.

Man, my kid doesn't ask me almost anything. Since he was 4 he wants to just give all the answers.

He's right more often than not, though.
