A child has the same emotional capacity as an adult. It is towards which objects their emotions are directed that vary. A child can feel pain and cry, just like an adult. A child can love, be happy, and be sad. All these characteristics can be found in adults. When it applies to intellectual capacity then no children are not in the same playing field with adults. A child has not developed their mind to the point of adult thinking and rationality. So therefore, no a child is not intellectually equal to an adult.
