Naive Little Children

At what age does the corruption really start?

It was weird. Just two days ago Sarah and I discussed the corruption of children with Mrs. Hiltson. We don't mean bad corruption, really. Just when is it, exactly, that kids start to get the I-know-all mentality? We decided it's really 7th or 8th grade. Then I began to think... I know kids who have had a "boyfriend" or "girlfriend" since 3rd grade! So I guess the real question is, when does the corruption end? Sometimes I think adults forget how much kids really understand and comprehend. Sometimes I myself think that kids don't understand some things, but they do. It's actually kind of amazing what kids can understand, even though most just dismiss kids and their thoughts. I wonder sometimes what the world would be like, if kids had more of a say. Would it be much different? I guess we'll never know!
