Awesome! Thanks for sharing. It is great when a child knows his or her self well enough to see what fits, and readily dismiss the rest. smile

It is wonderful to see this skill cultivated in one so young! smile There are life-long benefits to metacognitive awareness: One can recognize that others may experience something (as described on a page in the book, for example) in a way in which they personally do not. One can become practiced at recognizing when others project something onto them that does not originate within them. smile
