"You don't understand anything!" — and your child has already gone quiet?
Instead of an argument — a personal attack. The child might be right, but gets thrown off topic. And loses the conversation without even knowing why.
"You're too young" — that's not an answer, it's a hit
"You don't understand anything", "you're too young", "there's no point talking to you". At school, at home, among friends. The child might have a perfectly valid point — but after words like that, they either go quiet or start doubting themselves. And the conversation is lost.
This isn't a weak position or a lack of confidence. It's a natural reaction to being hit: when the attack is aimed at you rather than your idea, it's hard to stay on topic. Instead of engaging with what was said, the conversation shifts from "what you said" to "who you are". The child ends up defending themselves instead of their point.
The result — they lose the conversation even when they were right. "Maybe I really don't understand", "better say nothing" — and a valid point goes unspoken.
