Do me a favor.
Quit making fun of people (of any age but especially kids) who ask genuine questions.
I have to pull questions out of adults now because at some point someone made fun of them for being curious.
It's not embarrassing to learn, you shouldn't feel guilty for thinking of a question and asking an expert.
You should feel happy that you are still curious about the universe.
Make learning a positive experience? Please?
@Quenby I still remember how, on grade six, I proudly spoke in French class, pronouncing my name (Richard) like my French grandmother did, with a slight roll on the R's.
The whole class laughed. They heard a playground insult, a slur beginning with the letter R. Hilarious.
The French teacher tried halfheartedly to tell the class that I was right. Decades later, I still feel like some stranger will laugh at me if I try to speak their language.
That kind of thing sticks.
