Any tips on helping kids to not use their player knowledge and view their action choices through the knowledge and motives of their PC?
I have 8 year old boy/girl twins. My daughter clearly understands the concept. For her it’s obvious and she will even talk in character. But for my son, it’s as if I’m asking him to solve a calculus problem.
He gets quickly defensive, angry and frustrated if I disallow usage of knowledge his PC couldn’t possibly know, despite me trying to introduce this concept slowly and gently.
Likely this just a cognitive development stage issue but if anyone has some tips to help, I’d appreciate it.
Thanks in advance
