@scottmiller42@mstdn.social @trochee@dair-community.social @paninid@mastodon.world @louis@ingenthron.social yeah, if your goal is to make the person feel good and encourage more questions like that, you might need to be more explicit. sorry :/

@ireneista@adhd.irenes.space @scottmiller42@mstdn.social Yeah in those cases, like [is it nature or nurture ?] (or other great questions from a bright nine year old) I usually say, directly, "You know, that's a really good question and there's not just one answer for it. I can tell you about the different answers people have had in the past, or tell you what I think, or we can work out what the arguments are that make sense to you. Or we could drop the whole thing and come back to a different question." @paninid@mastodon.world @louis@ingenthron.social
