Justify your answer - Yes, he has the answer of the both questions. When the poet became eleven years old, he knew he had lost his infancy and had developed his own mentality. He also discovered that Hell and Heaven do not exist. A youngster has no concept of hypocrisy. His ideas and deeds are completely indistinguishable. Childhood is, in a nutshell, a state of innocence and purity of heart. As the poet grew older, he became aware of adult' double standards. He learned that, while grownups taught and talked about love, their actions were quite different and replete with deception. They were all hypocrites who acted in ways that contradicted their words.
Explanation:
- The poet views childhood to be a blissful phase in one's life in the poem "Childhood." The poet regarded all adults as the epitome of love and sincerity when he was a child.
- He was convinced that their love was genuine, and that they were willing to go to any length for their loved ones. As he grew older, he discovered that maturing into an adult is a complicated system including physical, mental, and social growth.
