As adults we have to agonise over the phrasing to make sure we don’t offend whilst indulging our curiosities.

As adults we don’t freak out. We allow them to stare intensely. They’re just a child after all.
I have to admit I’m jealous. If ever I’m people watching I have to expend a lot of effort ensuring I’m not detected.
