The problem comes from the children's lack of curiosity, which I strongly
believe is affected by how the parents delt with the children in their early
days: when you ask them why the sky is blue or any other seemingly
stupid question and they can't seem to give you an adequate answer, I
think you get turned off and stop asking, thereby putting a stop to your
"sponge days" of sucking up knowledge. Disney and fantasies like Santa
don't help either: some people never outgrow this phase...
