Smart kid. She’s right.
I would not recommend arguing with a little kid, but I have to point out that capacity for feeling is something that can be developed, like a muscle. The more you use it, the bigger and stronger it gets. It can similarly atrophy if under-exercised, perhaps due to neglect or injury.
But the kid and parent know each other for the same amount of time. Can’t argue with that
