Kids annoy the hell out of me, but they actually tend to be slightly less stupid than most adults.
Many adults think kids are stupid, but the reality is that kids are mainly just inexperienced or uninformed. Certainly they usually have a lack of foresight, but again that comes with time and experience. Now, granted the capabilities of children vary from child to child, but that’s actually more about people in general than about children.
Many (most?) adults are just more experienced extensions of who they were as children. It’s why politicians are whiny, self-important, and arrogant; and why people are yet still gullible enough to vote for Trump. It’s not that children are foolish, it’s that people are and many don’t learn to stop.
