That's because she is a girl and her daughter understands that better than her own puny mind. The narcissism of these people astounds.
It's not narcissism: It's solipsism. They genuinely believe that reality is a reflection of their own desires and perceptions. It's the result of the nihilistic postmodern education that the past few generations have received. When every kid grows up in school being taught that it's them who give meaning to the universe, and not the other way round, this kind of thing is inevitable.
I want to deny this, but I've heard enough people saying things like this. Not just things that have some degree of subjectivity, but things that are completely objectively true or false. Even claiming what other people's subjective experience or reasons must be OVER the actual person, because they feel it is.
One of the ways they test animal sentience is by whether they realize their subjective experience is not the same as another's. Humans are supposed to gain this ability when they're toddlers. It has been removed from these people.
You're talking about Theory of Mind. And yes, NPCs utterly lack it, whether because it was beaten out of them or because they never had it to begin with.
It's that dualist crap. They think they are thrown into the world rather than embedded into it.
