It seems it's often not expressed well to children that there are hard limits to knowledge and potential. Maybe that might seem defeatist, but it seems that to children it is often unthinkable that adults don't usually have everything sorted. There is always a balance that needs to be found.

Eh I like young people to be naive. Sometimes people can solve things because they didn't know they weren't supposed to be unable to.

Those limits exist but they’re certainly not hard and they are seldom permanent outside of brain and cognitive impairments.
