I have kids and work with kids. I agree with Cangirl. Pain is not learned. It is a survival instinct that cannot be overcome without years of hard work and meditation. A child certainly doesn't have that capability.

I have seen children/babies cry in pain many times from things that were never taught caused pain. Like a fire ant bite, splinter, first shots as an infant...
