Children understand if a protection system works to their advantage against adults.
Those who grow up in misery learn to not turn to them or that they won’t be believed anyway.
But those who grow up in ordinary circumstances - they develop understanding as well as will to make that useable for them in their favor. They can downright turn into Eric Cartman from South Park and try to enforce getting his Xbox back when their mother has taken it from them in order for justified scolding, staging it like a critical “violation of human rights”.

Kids like that tend to never grow up and not learn to respect boundaries.
Their whole world keeps spinning around their single ego.

I've been teaching an 11-year-old patient how to use emotional blackmail to get his parents to do things that he wants. Cartman is the model. :)

Mexican kids are too blindly obedient to their parents.

It's all wrapped up in the culture. Very Catholic. Very conformist. "Patriarchy." And the mothers and grandmothers (who probably live in the same house) teach the boys to be machos. Men will not speak against women because "they could be mothers!" Things like this.

Yes. That's a pretty accurate description.

No, not at all my experience growing up. These are just my observations of the Mexicans.
