    No. They have enough experience to be experts…but not the critical thinking skills.

    Like a cat who touches a hot stove, gets burned, yelps in pain, and then IMMEDIATELY touches the hot stove again, and again IMMEDIATELY yelps in pain.

    Then you see the cat about to touch it again…

        My cat bapped a candle flame once, threw wax around when she shook her paw, then spent a half an hour licking it. Now, when she sees a flame, she watches it carefully, but doesn’t touch it.

        Because my cat kept trying to set herself on fire. We had to institute a “no candles” policy, until she died.

        She krpy trying to stick her paw into the flame.

      Wait since when did you need critical thinking skills to be an expert in self sabotage? Wasn’t the whole idea to be an expert in a lack of critical thinking skills?
