The psychological phenomenon that the child in the back seat is experiencing is a concept called optic flow.

To put it simply, optic flow is <em>the visual motion that you experience as you move through the world.</em> It refers to how you perceive things as you move around the world. The child is perceiving that the roadside is moving quickly because he or she is in a moving car, and thus it creates the perception that the roadside is moving faster than the buildings, which due to its size and position relative to the child, seems to move slower.

Paha777 [63]
I believe the answer is: <span> it is a strong predictor of later aggression in adolescence and adulthood

Children who display constant physical aggression toward others generally experience some sort of problem in their home (they are either being ignored by their parents or they witness their parents do it and imitate them).
If this left unhandled, the aggression would become a habit as they grow up and make it much harder to be changed.</span>

Can anyone please write a small paragraph about what you think of Linda Tripp (If you don't know who that is, you can look up he
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

Linda Tripp, who died Wednesday at age 70, was one of those people. She wanted to write a book about her life as a secretary in the White House for two presidents: George H.W. Bush, whom she adored, and Bill Clinton, who she thought was crass and immoral. She believed that she could write a book exposing Clinton’s infidelities and that history would remember her as a truth-teller and a whistleblower.

Instead, she became a supporting player in Clinton’s impeachment, stuck forever in the role of the duplicitous harpy who betrayed then-White House intern Monica Lewinsky by secretly recording their conversations.“Central casting couldn’t have cast a better villain,” she told the podcast “Slow Burn” in 2018. “The entire country had decided who I was, and it was evil incarnate.”

Obituary: Linda Tripp, whose taped calls with Lewinsky led to Clinton impeachment

Unfair? Of course it’s unfair. History is a narrative written by the winners, and Clinton was acquitted and thrived. Thanks, in part, to the #MeToo movement, Lewinsky has been able to transform her image from oversexed intern to a more accurate and nuanced characterization: a naive young woman swept up in an affair with a powerful man — in fact, the most powerful man in the world.
