How Babies are seen differently now..
In the beginning of the video Alison Gopnik states beginning at 19 seconds into the Ted Talk Video that over twenty years ago psychologist thought that a baby’s “mind was irrational, illogical, egocentric, that he couldn’t take the perspective of another person or understand cause and effect.” Thinking about just the start of her speech I immediately think back to all my days as a child care worker wondering how different it would be if I had been born some thirty years ago what would my mind think of children and would it be different because of the time that I had been set in.
We are talking about baby brain growth this week – This statement above really has changed.
What can you add to the board that shows how we think differently about maturation of children now compared to even 20 years ago??
Post a Question from the Chapter here from your perspective!!
