Children play with wild abandon, not questioning consequences, fearing the worst or wondering what others might think. Adults get stuck on the outside, jaded and circulating around them with too much information, too much knowledge, and too much of a superiority complex. They often want to project their misery upon the children, sap their pleasure and happiness, and simply know better. Adults whose growth is harshly stunted tend to do this as well, to their relatives, to their friends and certainly to their enemies by proxy. I think we can all learn a lot from children.
