"I feel it, so it must be true!" — and your child is already doubting themselves?
An opinion is being presented as a fact. It sounds convincing — but there's nothing to check. This isn't proof. It's a substitution.
A feeling isn't a fact. But that's exactly how it gets presented
"I feel like that's wrong", "it seems to me like it's your fault", "it's definitely true because I think so". At school, in arguments, among friends. The child gets confused — it sounds convincing, but they don't know how to check it or whether they even should.
This isn't proof — it's a substitution: a personal feeling is passed off as truth. A fact can be checked — an opinion is just someone's judgement. When the two get mixed up, it seems pointless to argue because "that's just how the person feels". Without the skill to tell them apart, the child starts to doubt themselves.
The result — they agree with something that has no real evidence behind it. Simply because someone sounded confident.
