And it was this just moment of like
Holy cow, everybody in the world is thinking their own thing.
And I think our kids aren't always there yet.
Like we have to point that out to them.
I know that I often spend a lot of time with my younger one who um Benjamin who does a lot of um starting in the middle of a thought, he'll talk to me as if I know what's going on in his head.
Um I think a lot of kids do that.
And I'll have to say, I don't know what you're thinking, so I need you to back up and tell me what you're thinking.
And then he'll do a lot of things like, Do you think that person is thinking this?
And I'll say, I don't know, because I'm not inside that person's head.
But in a situation like this, what would you be thinking?
And I think it's a matter of just starting just point out those moments and not expecting that theory of mind is something that kids just automatically have.
Because their experience of the world is like really contained to themselves until they start seeing
That other people have their own lives and that the other people can start expressing their own lives.
And that's part of it is because kids
don't always talk to each other about what they're thinking.
They talk about what they're doing.
They talk about what they love.
They talk about those kinds of things.
But they don't always talk about like those inner thoughts.
And that's the part that I think we need to start helping kids do is talk about their inner thoughts.
