This
paradox refers to the phenomenon where
children and young people are naturally driven to behave in ways that qualify them as "good kids". However, misbehavior remains common at this age because they often lack the prior knowledge or experience to discern right from
wrong effectively.
It's hilarious how my little
brother is
always trying to act like a 'good kid' at home, but he still can't resist throwing a tantrum when he doesn't get his way — that's the good kid
paradox in action!
