The human mind is indeed an immaculate slate at birth. Devoid of all negativity. Vices such as hate, jealousy, lies, envy, racism, meanness are learnt from adults or picked up as people grow older.
Here is a video of a rich kid and a poor kid that showcases the innocence of children. This video is emotional and there are tons of lessons to learn from it.

Though being in a car and more comfortable, the kid did not look down on the other lad who likes his toys. He happily shared his toys and played with the other kid while being stuck in traffic. The child’s parents, or whoever was in the car with him, equally scored amazing points. They did not stop the kid from playing with the other boy. Some parents would have raised the car widows and ended the interaction. Frankly, lovely individuals breed lovely kids.
Also, the little boy by the street did not run off when the other kid gave him his toys. Rather he played with it and offered to return it. He only took the toy when the other kid refused to have it back, insisting that he kept it. The gesture of returning the toys shows that the lad has a strong character and understands that people’s acts of kindness are not an avenue to exploit them.
Both kids had different skin colours yet it did not stop the rich kid from being kind. Truly, we are all humans before any other thing.
As adults, it is necessary to learn from the innocence of children and show more love and kindness.
