Young kids have wider circles of concern than adults.
Adults expect people to enjoy the misfortune of groups they dislike. But 3-5-year-olds expect people to care about everyone's suffering.
Compassion is an instinct—we don't have to learn it. We need to stop unlearning it.
How to keep an open mind:
1. Think like a scientist: treat your opinions as hypotheses and decisions as experiments
2. Embrace confident humility: argue like you’re right, listen like you’re wrong
3. Build a challenge network: seek out people who sharpen your reasoning
