    Tbf to the kid, I can't think straight when I'm hungry either. Should have fed her from one can then let her figure out the next for dinner or something

      She was also, correctly, angry.

      People who are just starting out with shit aren't good at critical thinking. How much experience with tools does she have to go off of when assessing a can opener? Probably not a lot. Couple that with not wanting to know more, and being hungry and who wants to closely inspect a fucking can opener?

        Yeah it's terrible. I also can't really imagine what specific situation this is preparing for. If it's for now, the important skill to learn is how to find tutorials on youtube lol. If it's for some "apocalyptic future", it makes more sense to give her a knife........ and then drive her to the hospital if she cuts off her fingers I guess.

        Honestly if I was the girl, by the end of the first hour I'd have snuck a phone and called my mom/another relative, sobbing lmao.
