My therapist made a comment about how China is a failed socialist experiment because they have 2-3 year olds working in factories. I responded “So we’ve been told.” She looks at me like I’m crazy. (Not a great look for a therapist) “I’ve not seen any evidence of that.”
“Because they’re such a closed country!”
“Which means you have no evidence to your point either?”
“Well, missionaries… anyway!”
“…a three year old can’t work in a factory, they barely have object permanence.”
Dont need object permanence to repeat the same action over and over or you get beat
… you do though! You can’t “do certain action” or understand that doing that action prevents beatings until your brain develops past a certain point!
Fair point
