Life has a learning curve. Spend some time with younger children, and you'll quickly understand that many still haven't mastered the basics. Forming a line, playing fairly, and all sorts of niceties seem second nature. As a caretaker, you can attempt to explain property rights fundamentals; regardless, if Johnny brought a shiny new truck today, Jason will do everything he can to take it.
Differences in childhood and adult psychology are also apparent in how children reason. Their brains are still developing, and they are still practicing their deductive abilities and problem-solving skills. They also need practice in exercising judgment.
Illustrator Sazanami (@3MshXcteuuT241U) has had first experience with this phenomenon. The mother of two young children, she's written about the hurdles that come with child-rearing. She also recently wrote about what she is still learning in terms of effective childcare. In the manga below, she outlines a lesson in childhood psychology that would benefit any guardian.

Fortunately, Sazanami's mother knows a thing or two about talking to children. She was able to help the young girl who had become lost.
