“Monkey See, Monkey Do” is a really old saying that means learning something without understanding why or being concerned about the consequences.
Ir seems that we have a good example of Monkey See, Monkey Do at our house right now, as Sadie has recently been found pulling up grass in our backyard and eating it along with dirt. What are the consequences of that behavior (which totally models what Molly and I have been doing for several years)? Sadie has begun to vomit up grass and dirt in the middle of the night, just like Molly and I have done repeatedly after our backyard foraging and now Wen has to go outside with us and police all three of us.
Yep, Monkey See, Monkey Do!
