Kids are so gullible


This has nothing to do with alcoholism or bipolar, but it's interesting nonetheless.

"'Children have developed a specific bias to believe what they're told,' says Jaswal. 'It's sort of a short cut to keep them from having to evaluate what people say.'"

This was a study of 3-year-olds. The next was of 7-year-olds.

"It shows that kids really pay attention to people's accuracy and they don't forget it, even after interacting with that person one time,"

So beware your impressions on the young, and tell them the truth!
