FfFfFfFF 58,133 Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 Research from the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Human History has demonstrated that when young birds are nurtured by their parents for extended time periods, they become more intelligent and better equipped for survival. The study places new emphasis on the critical role of parents in the evolution of intelligence. Like birds, children need a supportive environment that helps brain development reach its fullest potential. At a study site in Sweden, the researchers observed Siberian jays. The young jays live in family groups for up to four years under the care of a breeding pair. Using a field test, the experts discovered that birds who stayed with their parents longer were able to learn faster. As a result, they were more intelligent, better equipped for long-term survival, and more likely to start their own family. “Learning opportunities arise from the interplay between extended childhood and extended parenting. The safe haven provided by extended parenting is critical for learning opportunities. It creates extended developmental periods that feed back into the extended childhood.” Source: https://www.earth.com/news/parents-play-a-crucial-role-in-the-evolution-of-intelligence/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great parents here too, and I do agree with you on this, you sometimes have to let go of your past and fight for a better future. But that's much easier said than done. Your upbringing affects you in many more ways than you'd think, and taking conscience of it and undoing these learnings is hard. Ok I think I might be getting off-topic over here but idk love to y'all be strong. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok I think I might be getting off-topic over here but idk love to y'all be strong. I know those changes are hard... very, very hard. I've experienced it myself, and there were times where i did blame my childhood for many things that went wrong in my life, cause of course your childhood affects you in so many aspects, but as i grow up, facing life, studying, evolving, i got to one point where i could cry about my childhood and hide, or i can accept everything that has happened, learn from it, move on, and start to fight for myself. Because at the end of the day, everything we hope and wish for is in our hands, only we can do it. It's not an easy process, and it took me many years to be where i am now, but i always try to push my friends to do better, to fight more, to let go of something that we can never change, and to even accept that people make mistakes, as did our parents, they are not invincible, and many just did the best they could, even if it's something not good enough, but that is life.

gumzy3000 7,901 Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 Isn’t this like well known to be honest? Kids who come from more loving families who have parents who take care of the child, give them attention and proper discipline will almost always have a higher chance of succeeding in life than a child who comes from a family where they were neglected, not loved or improperly taken care of. trolly troll troll Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
