Kids asking questions

I am not interested to know how rockets work or the rules of cricket. I just don't ask questions nor do I seek to understand these things which I find confusing. I lost interest in certain things because the question I asked went unanswered, and then slowly, asking questions became passe.

The more you do, the more questions you have. The less you do, the less interested you become. I just read this case study at newsweek about creativity and I am so so so damn convinced with the case. One excerpt from it goes like

Preschool children, on average, ask their parents about 100 questions a day. Why, why, why—sometimes parents just wish it’d stop. Tragically, it does stop. By middle school they’ve pretty much stopped asking. It’s no coincidence that this same time is when student motivation and engagement plummet. They didn’t stop asking questions because they lost interest: it’s the other way around. They lost interest because they stopped asking questions.

I say, its all because we don't have time to ask/answer questions. These questions slowly deteriorate as we age and we convince ourselves that we are good with all that we know. As much as possible, if you know the answer to a question, say it; If you don't know but you feel like you can give it a shot, say it anyways. Sometimes you talk as if you know everything, but the fact remains that its all what you feel and not what you know. That's one step closer from being creative or sometimes a jerk. I prefer being a jerk coz anyways people  don't have time to question and they listen to what I say and don't bother checking facts.
