That's like asking how long a bit of string is.

Each child is different. Some may understand at 5, and some may not get it until their teens.

The girl in the story used by OP, learnt that day.

Hello Mick
Kids never ask how life is for them.
They can only move on with what the experience is around them.

Life changes every single day, some great changes, some not, life not something that is for you, but how you adapt and react to lives changes is who you are and/or evolve into.

Its all about "home" education, if you do not teach the child well at home how can you expect the school to make the child better, you need to be firm with any child and let it know the rights and wrongs, l believe that when you look at ac child you see the family if the child is scum then the family normally are, in any case never blame others for the way your child is and certainly never blame the school because their hands are tied...........yours are not!

Hard times, danger and a powerful mind make a kid grow up sooner rather than later.
