Simplified Meaning:

Adults are often complex and have many unique behaviors and hidden parts of their lives. For example, think about a teacher in school. In the classroom, they are serious and focused on teaching. But outside of school, they might have hobbies, like painting or playing guitar, that their students know nothing about. Adults also have feelings and thoughts that they don’t always share with others. They might stay calm during stressful times, even though they are worried inside. Kids might think adults always have everything figured out, but in reality, adults also have doubts and fears that they keep to themselves. This idea teaches us that everyone has more going on beneath the surface than they show. Understanding this can help us be more patient and compassionate with others, knowing there’s always more to someone’s story than what we see.
