Awesome, so basically talking in third person. Thanks for the breakdown!
I recently learned about a theory that the concept of God comes from early humans developing an internal monologue and thinking it was an external voice. It's quite a big stretch to make but it did get me thinking about how humans aren't born with a sense of self. They develop it as children and not necessarily at the same age - apparently this often happens much later for kids with autism. And many develop it VERY early.
So, all that to say....I suppose it makes sense why people think it's childish! It's the only way toddlers communicate.
