Summary
This quote suggests that the resilience and ability to endure difficult situations often displayed by children is rooted in their lack of knowledge about alternative options or better alternatives. Unlike adults, children often do not have the same range of experiences or the awareness of the possibilities that may exist outside their current circumstances. Consequently, their capacity to endure and persist is driven by a sense of acceptance and adaptability to the limited choices they perceive, rather than their ability to actively choose alternatives.
