I don't know. Seems to me it's not about coming DOWN to a childs level as much as it is understanding what motivates a child and using that. What the bum does puts no pressure on a child to learn, shows him the pleasure in doing the things he does (or supposed pleasure, we know better). He doesn't care if the child learns or not, therefore, allowing the child to pick up the knowledge the natural way. Observing its uses. Somewhere along the line, we have taken the natural joy out of learning and made it very unpleasant. Too bad. We get an "F".
