When explaining things to a child, speak to them like they are a person.
People need to stop treating kids like idiots.

Can't know exactly what you're talking about based on one sentence, but it sounds right.
Sometimes you meet kids who sound way more mature and intelligent than their age and sometimes you see the inverse. The difference is what is expected of them by the people around them.
If you explain something more complicated than they can handle they may nod pretending to understand it, but they also want to understand; and their mind grows faster.
Kids understand what you are saying, most kids just don't want to listen.
Idiots tell their kids about fairy tales, train them to behave, lie to them, hide knowledge from them, never challenge them intellectually but just demand blind obedience.
As a result, kids become idiots.
Thats how idiots reproduce.
I would have been a lot smarter if in my childhood I had contact with smart people, but all I had around me were pure idiots who did everything they could to make me be like them.
It wasnt "lets explore and learn new things.".
It was "Be like others, do what you are told, dont embarass your parents, just follow what others do..."
Kids born after 2040 should be lucky because they will have AI raising them, as opposed to being raised by idiots.
Most people are pure idiots, and should just let AI raise their kids.
AI should also work in schools and kindergartens, because human teachers and caretakers dont even care about child's well being,
And evolutionary, people have instinct to try to raise their children and sabotage other people's children, so the idea of letting someone else care for your child is pure idiotism which will just add to failure.

Kids tend to say this is true until you scold them like you would an adult.
Be reasonable, they're immature and learning. Be stern but with a lot of nice fun talk sprinkled in. They do need it.

Unless they are immigrant children.

If we try that with ADoL, do you think maybe he will stop being so childish?

I absolutely agree with this.

I would suggest that conditioning is a well established, progressive thing.
As is being conditioned.
People eventually fall into place.
I would suggest that in the main, ability is inherent, so an alternative strategy will probably only result in cosmetic changes to the social system.
Which isn't to say that some people wouldn't achieve a better result, with improved conditioning techniques.
Nonetheless:
It's interesting that you refer to kids as kids, rather than as people.
Freudian slip, me thinks.
