[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 412493"] I'm intriqued by all said here. Someone once told me this. There are three kinds of kids. (You can replace 'mother' with anyone in authority who has knowledge/experience, etc.) Kid #1 a) My mother always has my back and since she told me that touching the hot stove will hurt, I'm going to believe her and not touch the stove. Period. End of story. b) My mother always has my back and since she told me that touching the hot stove will hurt, I'm not likely to touch it. Let me ask someone else I respect or research it. She was right. I'm not going to touch it. I'll get hurt. Kid #2 My mother always has my back and told me that touching the hot stove will hurt. But sometimes, maybe it wont. I want to test it out for myself. So, I'm going to touch it and experiment. Ouch! That hurt! I'm not going to be touching it again. She was right. Kid #3 My mother seems to have my back (but sometimes she just likes to tell me what to do!) and told me that touching the hot stove will hurt. But, she might be wrong! So, I'm going to test it out for myself, touch it and experiment. Ouch! That hurt! Maybe it wont happen again. Let's try it a second time. Ouch! That hurt. Maybe the third time is the charm. OUCH! #3 is the kid you REALLY worry about. [/QUOTE]
