Yes, like in nature. The more a species is clever, the less the infant brain is hardwired, and the longer his learning period (infancy) appears to be. I see intelligence as an ability to learn and to change our mind. Adult is the phase when we apply "stupidly" the intelligence that we might have developed in the childhood. Childhood is when you are incompetent and intelligent. Adulthood is when you become competent and stupid, so to speak.

Which is why Nietzsche says you must be a camel before being a lion and a lion before being a child.
