This brief clip raises a number of questions, including:
- where are 'the buds'? - what are the qualitative reorganizations here?
- why are the buds (e.g., of volition) not yet present for the 3 year-olds, present for the 5 year-olds, and already flowered for the 8 year-olds? (ages are approximate, I know)
- how temporary is the 5 year-olds' improved volition? does it wear off?
- is it now 'activated' for good? - for the 8 year-olds, is volition developed for tasks such as standing still but still in 'bud' stage for more demanding acts of will?
