Chapter 9 post 2

Another thing that also caught my attention was when Chapter nine talked about theory-theory. This is when young children don’t understand a topic and therefore they create their own theories to help them understand what they see or hear. I think this is such a powerful thing to have and that will help strive the imagination that they have. This although seems illogical to adults would be good for older people to have too. I think that sometimes you need to have some imagination to succeed in things. I also think that adults use this when they experience an event or something that they can’t explain or deal with; hence creating an alternate conclusion. This could also help with creativity by trying to think of things illogical or corrupted to really get into a warped sense of mind to create their art work. I at least like to take something I know and challenge it with a different perspective, which in turn can help you learn more about yourself mainly and some about society.  However, it is crazy to think that children truly don’t know the truth or the right answers all the time but use problem solving along with logical think to try and figure it out.
