The thing is, is they really aren't. We just infantilize kids so much that when we see kids being smart, we automatically assume they're an exception to the rule.

I think we're all so used to the hardships that we deal with on a daily basis as a society that we normalize them. What that causes is for them to seem not as bad as someone who doesn't find them to be normal might see them as. So, the kids find the bad things they go through to be bad but also just a part of their ordinary lives and hence managable, and what the 90 year olds have gone through to be unknown and terrible. And vise versa. Personally, I still believe life is, as a whole, easier today than it was 90 years ago, but there are different problems now.
