原贴看下面我的旧贴：

想知道你孩子的思维到达什么程度吗?
问这个问题：why do we have laws？

给出年龄和孩子的第一回答，不是你启发后的回答。我可以免费解答。：）

===========下面是解答，鉴于参加的人数太少，就给个简版。：）===========

这个问题无所谓对错，要看的是答案的具象和抽象的程度。儿童思维从具象到抽象发展，一般说到8岁开始有一个分界。举例说，6岁孩子的答案：

Peter： “If you are driving too fast they might get you a ticket."
Rich: "Because you might get hurt."

这都是具象回答，但Rich开始朝普遍性发展。

10岁：

Naomi: If we didn't have laws like "don't speed", "don't hunt", then people won't know if their supposed to do this or that.

Ann: Laws were made to protect us and to keep the world or our country safe.

Ann 开始比较抽象的思考。

13岁：

Bianca:Laws are very important to have in any form of group.  They protect people from others.  No one or group could or would survive without them.  If we have no laws then we have no rights.

Frank: We have to run by some sort of guidelines to live by and to run our society in an efficient way. If we did not have laws, we would probably be the only animals that world not have some sort of system. 

看出来了吗？ 有趣吗？
