I think it's also fair to consider that, unless given an alternative frame of reference, children are blissfully unaware of how their experiences differ from "normal." Whatever their personal experiences are, that's what defines their normal.
I'll absolutely agree with that thought pattern Dude, however, I'm also talking about those 16+ years old and worldly enough to have valid comparison, also fully capable of making those comparisons.
If you eat chocolate enough, it stops being special you know? That doesn't mean you want to stop eating chocolate,it still tastes good, it can still be appreciated, it just stops being special and you cease being excited about it. I'm not sure there is a way to change that other than to not get chocolate very often.
