ANSWER: Every observer will look through a frame of reference limited by education and training, personal life situations, own childhood, experiences with children, and the society in which the observer grew up. In addition, other factors like biases for or against individual or groups of children based on sex, race, and prior experience with the family may obscure the objectivity of the observation.
