I believe that it is an important thing even for adults.  If as a person is not able to understand that others have beliefs, emotions, attitudes, and their own perspectives people would not be able to create relationships or even get along.  People would walk around butting heads on every little thing more than they already do.  We would probably end up having more wars and disagreements than we already do.  So having the concept that people think different and that they all have their own beliefs, feelings, and their own perspectives too helps keep people in line and disagreements down from what they could be.  Even with people understanding these things this stuff happens anyhow on a very small scale because there are hard headed people out there that think others should think and feel like they do and if there wasn’t this understanding, things would be out of control.
