      Hi @mkershaw
      Wow, what a great question.

      Everyone is slightly different, in how they look, and in how they act. Similarly, everyone’s brains are slightly different. Your genes and the environment you experience all change how your brain develops and responds to the world. So this is why everyone thinks different things.

      It would be rubbish if we all thought the same – you wouldn’t need to answer these questions, and we’d all give you exactly the same answers!!!
