A few examples of taboo would be incest relationships and abortion. Homosexuality was a major taboo especially a long time ago, but in the modern society, we have learned to accept diversity in culture and gender. But nowadays, incest and abortion are two things that violates the moral law and the social norms. On the otherhand, in some places, incest relationships are tolerated in order to continue the their family's name and to keep it within themselves.

Tom is trying to determine if something his 8-year-old daughter is telling him about really happened when she was 4 years old. S
Serjik [45]

Answer:

The likelihood of her remembering an actual event is very slim

Explanation:

Due to the fact that Tom recalls the incident his 8 year old daughter is trying to relay to him happened in a cartoon, it is unlikely it happened for real.

The 8 year old is telling her father Tom, that her toy was ran over by a car in an event that happened years ago. Her father remembers that was a scene from a cartoon so it is very likely that what the 8 year old thinks was a real event was in fact her recalling the cartoon and interpreting that it happened to her.

An 8 year old's brain isn't fully developed to differentiate reality and fantasy and as such, such occurrences are not rare.
