The Washington Post recently performed a fun focus group test on kids ranging from six to eight. The Post showed kids 60-second clips of the top seven presidential candidates. Their responses were both funny and revealing. As the story says, "Sometimes it sounded like they were parroting things they'd heard, most likely at home." So be careful, what you may be saying around the house, little ears are always listening. But what is even more fascinating about this study, it seems that with this campaign adults are responding like children. Nancy Carlsson-Paige says that "one thing she's noticed this election cycle is how much the adult candidates and political pundits sound like young children."
