Agreed. The main difference between adults and children, I think, is that adults are more capable of criticizing their own actions according to a moral framework. But they aren’t necessarily inclined to do so. Adults who don’t question their own thoughts and actions won’t necessarily behave any better than children, just more within social convention, since they’ve had time to absorb those “rules”.
