And to think there are still so many people in this world who believe that having happy, well adjusted, children who learn easily is "only a matter of luck and genes".
In the following video Professor Allan Schore of UCLA points out, in easy-to-understand language, that "genes don't stop at birth".
This video is one that I wish everyone - whether a future parent, present parent, or non-parent - would watch because I believe that it's message has the potential of changing a lot of thinking, as well as contributing to a far better understanding of human development, some of those ever-famous nature/nurture questions, and the importance of positive interaction in the first months and years of a child's life.
