    This study is contemporary Lovecraft.
    "Though Wire Mother is always silent, you have heard her voice in your dreaming-hours; it is shrill, metallic and unnatural, grinding blades that scream a dire warning you will never understand. She wails her deafening roar until you are startled awake...met with her silence and that all-penetrant, disquieting gaze. Her cold touch that is somehow present and absent at the same time. Something tells you she could loose that terrifying voice at any moment, and the memory of its sound frays the edges of your mind. You keep your distance just in case and approach only to feed. She never stops watching.
    Soft Mother does not speak, neither in dreaminng or in waking moments. You begin to believe that she is not real. You bury this notion deep in denial.. for it opens the door to a more horrifying thought..... one too terrible to speak. It stays in the shadows; the eldritch notion of her - until one day, when swinging on her by your hands, you pull in just the right direction...and her soft, comforting flesh falls away - revealing your denial to be the absolute, undeniable truth..........
    All this time, she was just another Wire Mother.
    She begins to scream her ancient song, and the world turns red.
    Her Song is all you will ever hear again.
    There is nothing left in you but rage."

    These studies should make us worry about the way we raise boys. Systematically restricting boys access touch and punishing them for crying or having emotions has consequences in how men think and act. It is notable that the behaviors that result from this kind of mistreatment of monkeys are similar to the problematic "male" behaviors that are often derided in our society.

      Demian Haki Actually these exact experiments go on today in Maryland:
      Stephen J. Suomi is chief of the Laboratory of Comparative Ethology at the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development(NICHD) in Bethesda, Maryland. He is also a research professor at the University of Virginia, the University of Maryland, and Johns Hopkins University. He is involved with the Experience-based Brain & Biological Development Program, launched in 2003 by theCanadian Institute for Advanced Research
      I have sent an email about the inaccuracy of their statement that "an experiment like this would never pass ethical standards today" - no reply as yet, but they are simply wrong because they are going on today.

    I think morality will always be one of the most interesting parts of psychology and it's probably why I decided to be a sociology major, since there is so much more in Soc about what's right and what's wrong, why you think that, and what has influenced you to think that. it's so so great and makes my brain go all kjldfaskl;jf, to put it eloquently.

    it kind of sucks that the shitty decisions of bad parents affects other human beings' lives for years, if not forever...I am now just emerging from insecurities, poor confidence, isolation, depression. The remedy came from me just growing up, experiencing the world, and hearing other people's experiences relayed on the internet. I get more motivation and good, kind words from people's personal stories on the internet...than my own mother ever gave me. I despise her for instilling in me at least 20 years of insecurities and poor self esteem in me....I am just happy that at the age of 25, I am finally getting out of her grasp, and healing myself up into a strong, secure person at long last.

    Excellent. My son was a Romanian orphan and struggles with mental health issues. I personally feel he has attachment issues as well as PTSD. Love him dearly none the less.

  • @Cleromanticon
    @Cleromanticon 10 років тому +8

    The mention of the study on Romanian orphanages was interesting. It's something I've seen come up frequently in adoption advocacy forums. People are more willing to adopt babies from overseas than older children from local foster groups because they assume that a child must be able to remember abuse or neglect to be damaged by it, but it turns out that neglect during infancy (such as one sees from understaffed orphanages) can actually be more damaging than abuse that starts at an older age.
    Considering the amount of brain development that occurs during early infancy through age three or so, the changes to the brain caused by the consistent neglect can be more "hardwired" even if there are no conscious memories behind them. Contrastingly the children whose abuse started at an older age can often be more able to process what happened to them through traditional psychotherapies like CBT.

  • @AnniMcSally
    @AnniMcSally 8 років тому +223

    Speaking of cruel experiments Friedrich II. once wanted to find out what language human would speak if no one ever spoke to them. So he had fostresses feeding and changing diapers on babies, while otherwise not interacting with them. After a few weeks all babies were dead. Conclusion babies need attention to survive.

    • @S2Tubes
      @S2Tubes 7 років тому +35

      No, they don't die. People have been raised without language. They don't speak at all if not exposed to language.

    • @AnniMcSally
      @AnniMcSally 7 років тому +61

      The babies in that particular experiment died. It's assumed that it was probably due to the fact that they aside from not speaking to them they also showed no attention to them what so ever (aside from giving them food).

    @SandwitchReaper 10 років тому +121

    For as long as I can remember, I've always thought identically to moral dilemmas. In fact, I remember a teacher posing the Heinz dilemma to us in 6th Grade. My answer and reasoning are still the same: of course Heinz was right, because his wife will be dead without that medicine, and if stealing is the only way to save her life, so be it.

    • @indeliblyronnie
      @indeliblyronnie 10 років тому +45

      I think it depends on what "right" means. One person is by no means entitled to anything produced by anyone or any group. That's slavery, and that is certainly, objectively wrong. That being said, I would steal the medicine whether it's right or wrong. I love my wife so much more than any other human that I would steal medicine, effectively making the producer of that medicine a slave in some sense. It's a matter of subjective values laid over objective human rights. Sometimes my values overrule the rights of others in my mind, but that doesn't change what right and wrong are.

    • @PHOENIXDude57
      @PHOENIXDude57 10 років тому +28

      And it didn't cause any harm to the pharmacist. The bastard could probably have whipped up another batch of that drug and sold it to make tons of cash. He was only thinking of himself (the money), even though he is more than capable of taking care of himself with a job like that.

    • @MrSamueleD
      @MrSamueleD 10 років тому +26

      Certainly the pharmacist has a right to his property, but when his property becomes something that would give him the right to decide whether another person lives or dies, is he still entitled to it? I don't think so. He rightly deserves to be rewarded for his discovery, but his greed cannot be allowed to condemn people to death..

    • @indeliblyronnie
      @indeliblyronnie 10 років тому +19

      How could you come to the conclusion that the pharmacist decides whether a person lives or dies? With that same logic, it would be right to enslave the entire american population to the starving people of the world. If we send away all superfluous goods and money to other countries, we can stop every death from starvation or curable diseases. No. People are condemned to death by their circumstances which are brought about by pure chance, their actions, or a mixture. Am i condemning you to death by keeping my safe car while you drive your death trap? No. There is absolutely no logically sound or moral justification for theft, which is a mild form of slavery. There should be societal pressures for generosity, of course, but compulsion is the opposite of human. It's anti-human, and it's evil.

    • @MrSamueleD
      @MrSamueleD 10 років тому +11

      If you have the chance to save a person life and choose not to then you are deliberately choosing to let them die, that's how you choose whether that person lives or dies. It's a fairly simple concept, really: can you save this person? Yes? Then you must, if you don't do it, then they will die because you chose not to and it becomes your fault. No? Then you are blameless.
      The fact that you are in a position to save a life gives you responsibility over what happens next, it changes the situation: at first the person was simply dying alone, no one could do anything and it was no one's fault, from the moment you come into the scene and you are in a position to save them they become your responsibility, because it is your choice to help them or not that will decide whether they live or die.
      If you find an injured person on the street, and you ignore them, and they die because of their juries, but if you had stopped and helped them you would have saved them, in a lot of countries you can be considered at fault (at least partially) for their death. You didn't cause their injuries, but you let them die when you could have saved them and your deliberate failure of providing assistance is considered a crime, or tort, whatever the correct legal term is (yes, even if you ask them money for your help and they can't pay you). How is this example any different?
      Please, don't pull up strawmen, no one asks that the pharmacist be sold into slavery, treated as property and exploited for production of the drug, it is simply required that he saves the life of a person in need, at little cost for himself, I might add.
      Yes, slavery is wrong and forcing people to do things is wrong, stealing is wrong, taking people's property away is wrong, but, in some situations, demanding that a person surrenders some of their property or time and effort (in perfectly reasonable quantities) in order to save another human being is necessary and perfectly justifiable.
      It is not as simply as "taking things away from people is always wrong, it enslaves them!", it's not all black and white, it's not all or nothing, some times a tiny bit of "theft" is just necessary (think of taxes, or illegal materials getting confiscated, etc.)

  • @tswagggie
    @tswagggie 8 років тому +51

    This video gives great examples of attachment styles and how different parenting styles will affect that child as an adult. I also enjoyed the section on the Harlow experiment with monkeys. That experiment, although it was very sad, cruel, and would not pass today’s standards, had important results. The results of this experiment were not surprising to me and showed that contact and touch are vital to attachment, learning, psychological development, and emotional well-being. How a child is raised early on in life will determine many factors, especially how they view the world, other people, and themselves. I think that the early years of a child’s life are the most crucial because they will shape that child into the person that they will become. Although the parent’s role is very important in a child’s life, I think it is important that as the child grows they should become more autonomous and should begin to make their own decisions based off of the values instilled in them by their parent’s. This will allow the child to develop into an individual and not be dependent on their parent’s, allowing them to make decisions about actions intentionally, with understanding, and without any controlling influences that determine their actions. This to me is the most valuable tool acquired when becoming an adult.

    • @shawnsmith6879
      @shawnsmith6879 5 років тому +1

      What I find most frustrating is the fact that the field of Psychology in general acts as if there has never been another source for parenting advice outside of scientific studies that have been conducted. However, parenting advice has existed for many thousands of years. Society has simply turned to scientists, who claim to be the original experts, instead. Below are several examples which, when followed, result in well-raised children. There are many more examples, but the list would would be too long. My comments are in brackets.
      Colossians 3:21
      Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged.
      Ephesians 6:4
      And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. [Note that nurture comes first - before admonition - and is therefore more important. Without nurturing, admonition provokes children to wrath or anger and causes them to become discouraged as Colossians 3:21 explains.]
      Proverbs 22:6
      Train up a child in the way he *should* go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it. [There is a right way to train up a child and there is a wrong way. It is a parental responsibility with consequences that will affect our children for the rest of their lives.]
      The relationship of a virtuous wife and her family defined:
      Proverbs 31:25-28
      (25) Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come.
      (26) She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness.
      (27) She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eatheth not the bread of idleness.
      (28) Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her.
      Titus 2:3-4
      (3) The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things;
      (4) That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children,
      Ephesians 6:1-2
      (1) Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right.
      (2) Honour thy father and mother; (which is the first commandment with promise;)
      [It is the parents' responsibility to raise/teach/train their children for life. Rebelliousness makes this responsibility a misery for parents and causes confusion in the home. Rebellion also results in children making decisions that are destructive to their own lives.]
      Ephesians 5:31
      For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. [This is independence from parents who must now let go of their grown children. The responsibility for decisions in life now rests on the newly-married couple.]
      [These verses were written with the intent that they should be followed with love, respect, knowledge, and understanding by both parents and children to create peace and happiness within the home and to prepare children for a happy, healthy future as adults. What loving parent would want their children to grow up in a miserable home and have a miserable adulthood afterward?]

    @alaskarayburn 10 років тому +1

    Maybe I shouldn't admit this, but several years ago my boss called me into her office and told me she was worried about me. She knew I had a problem with depression and thought I had been so depressed the last few days that I should go into the hospital. She called my doctor and he agreed so I decided to give it a try. The folks at the local hospital have always been as helpful as they could be. They even saved my life at least once when I had ruptured my appendix. But what I carry away from my stay with them on this occasion is that for three days they were kind, considerate and compassionate, but no one actually touched me. What I mean is that the power of the human touch means a lot to me. My father has been gone twenty years now, but I still remember what it felt like to put my arms around him. On another occasion, about 35 years ago I was having dinner with family in a restaurant. I don't remember much about it, but at one point the waitress came over to ask how we were doing and for just a second, rested her hand on my shoulder. Oh the power and importance of the human touch.

    Thank you so much for making this video! My mum works in early education and I have grown up learning about how important attachment and contact are in children's relationships with adults. I think this kind of thing should be taught in schools in order to help young adults understand how parenting has a huge impact on a child's life. Also, empathy is supremely important in child development. (PS The monkey experiment makes me so sad!)

  • @themaster12548
    @themaster12548 10 років тому +36

    Speaking of isolation.
    In humans, if you isolate a human from any human contact, they will have the knowledge of a child.
    We have pets like dogs. They rarely meet other dogs, so how do they communicate (Other than sniffing each other bottoms) when they do? Or do they communicate at all?

    • @erraticonteuse
      @erraticonteuse 10 років тому +30

      The short answer is dogs form their attachments to us, we're their pack. You can also see levels of good and bad dog-to-dog socialization any time two strange dogs being taken for walks cross paths. Some are friendly, some growl, some are scared. There's a host of factors feeding into this too (including breed), but for all intents and purposes, all domestic dogs speak "human" and tend to relate to each other based on how they relate to their humans. (It's really much more complex than that, but this is what I can fit into a UA-cam comment).

      @feldinho 10 років тому +19

      Since I think dogs don't have a language, they can still communicate as well as people with no overlapping cultures do. You can know when a Chinese is happy or angry without speaking their language.

      You should take your dog to the park and group training so they can get doggy friends. If they don't do that when they're puppies they are likely to become fearful and aggresive later in life. And yes, they communicate a lot, mainly via body language.

    This is very depressing to see as someone who went through severe abuse and neglect as a child (i went through foster care from 10-18). I feel like it's a hard uphill battle for me....too bad that psychological help is too expensive on top of unhelpful when everyone just wants to give you pills...

      Yeah, the system is not gonna be much help. Sorry to hear the misfortunes you've had. Sincerely, I feel that finding someone you Love who truly Loves you would probably make a huge difference...as long as it's the "right" person! And you cold eventually build a family of your own and Create the type of family dynamic and environment that YOU feel is Best!! Good Luck... Stay Strong... Don't take the pills... Find your inner strength then help others find theirs!!

      For most mental issues, they aren't physically able to be fixed, and the symptoms are more important than the root cause, as the symptoms are what cause suicide, self harm, etc,etc,etc. I have adult ADD, and depression, my wife and my mom have anxiety/panic disorder/ agoraphobia, and my dad had schizophrenia and severe bi-polar, all of them were far better off with medications than they were with therapy or counseling alone.

      I am not anti-medication. I am against the idea of "giving them pills" and nothing else, which is extremely common in the US. As I went through foster care, I was at one time on 14 different medications, at age 12. Nothing else was given to help me, no counseling or therapy. And here I am 25, pill-less and handling my problems myself because I cannot afford the help I truly need, but my insurance will gladly pay full price for medications, whereas therapy goes under my $5,000 deductible. I stopped taking medications forcibly in high school, after I learned the basics of what was wrong with me thanks to a psychology class and further research, which also led me to learn about the side effects of the medications I was on. I learned that a majority of my medications were to counteract the side effects, which means they were really messing with my body and not helping my mind in any way. I was diagnosed with Bi-polar, Mood Disorder NOS, DID, PTSD, ADHD, Reactive attachment disorder, depression, anxiety, and was told I would have been diagnosed with autism if the DSM-V was out sooner in my life. And yet, here I am, 25 years old, with a stable (5 year) marriage, own my own home, have 3 degrees with all 4.0's, and am an entrepreneur. I deal with negative thoughts, self-hatred, and many other things. But the help just isn't there, especially with my PTSD issues which i believe is the root cause for many other of my problems that come and go. I had to learn by myself how to cope; and I feel that is sickening especially with how the foster care system sets kids up for failure if they are never adopted. I should have gotten real help years ago, not a handful of pills and being told "you'll be fine now" without any other form of help. That is the problem I am pointing out; it is a cultural problem, a pharmaceutical problem (especially with marketing; It's more likely than not that if you ask your doctor about a pill from an advertisement, you will walk out with a prescription for said pill, especially if it is an antidepressant; this is also why opioid abuse is getting out of hand). There is a deep seated problem with how medications are handled in regards to mental health, it's not that it is bad all together, but one needs to have multiple avenues to cope with their mental health. Just one method may not cut it, and the western culture as a whole needs to get away from "a pill will fix me" attitude.

I'm studding my Diploma in children services and these videos are fantastic with helping me with my assignments as well to have this knowledge in the background in my head as I do work with children particularly with my observations. In particular I Enjoyed the video in cognitive development and would love that to be expanded upon in other areas of development such as Social development and Socio-economics affects people (children in particular for my personal interest lol)
    But thankyou to everyone who has worked on these videos and I'm looking forward to next weeks.

    I was dating someone who had a child with Reactive Attachment Disorder. It is one of the most difficult things in the world to deal with. Everything you could ever learn about raising a normal child goes out the window. What had unfortunately happened to her child was that while still an infant he had a acid reflux problem that wasn't diagnosed properly for a long time. This issue was going on during the most critical periods of his development. As a baby he only knew he was in pain, and that he was crying out for a mother that was helpless to stop it. He never grew to learn that others can be trusted to take care of him as an infant. This lead to him always needing to be in control of his situation. Not so much directly having to control others, just his own scenarios. Even things as simple as greeting friends had to become a predetermined routine. We had to ask people who came over to acknowledge us first before greeting him. This was one of the many things you would never think of when raising a normal child. We happened to meet one of the few people in our area who specifically study this disorder, she helped a lot. She is the author of a book called When Love is not Enough, and believe me that title is fitting. It is not something that can easily be overcome, it lasts the child's whole life. Nothing was the fault of the mother, but everything depended on her commitment to doing what was needed. It isn't all down sides, in the long run if the child can learn to live with and/or recover they do get some distinct qualities. This kid was hyper intelligent and focused. His need to be self reliant translates somewhat into a desire to learn at an accelerated pace. It is a really dangerous disorder though and should never be taken lightly. Some of the most terrible people the world has ever seen were thought to have suffered from the disorder. This disorder occurs so early in development it can lead to a collection of other disorders that accumulate over a life span. It is also often misdiagnosed as ADHD, which is unfortunate because the ADHD treatment methods only make Reactive Attachment Disorder worse. www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/reactive-attachment-disorder/basics/definition/con-20032126

      Tyrion Lannister Insecure attachment: Does not show distress when primary caregiver is absent( separation anxiety) or when approached by a stranger( stranger anxiety). Tend to explore more without going back to the caregiver( no secure base behaviour) and also does not look to see if the caregiver is in the room with them( proximity seeking behaviour). Can seek attention from the stranger. No reunion with the mother.

    • @thisisrnation

      I think the question is whether or not it indicates a specific parenting style. And since they didn't mention one it probably doesn't. I guess that just means children like us were abnormally independent regardless of what our parents were like.

    I noticed the kindergarten thing last week. I was in a elementary school and we were doing this thing ware you stand when a characteristic trait you have is called. I noticed kindergartens had to take a moment but 2nd traders knew almost instetly. And a lot of kindergartens had to ask If they did. A lot kids with blue eyes stood for brown eyes but quickly sat down when we pointed out someone who had brown eyes. I thought it was interesting especially with being able to compare them with 1st and second graders. It's nice to have someone what of a explanation there. (Also nice 406 shirt!

    As a part of my studies as a university student, I had to look up videos about Harlow's experiments on YT. I've read the background of this particular study and what lead to it. While I'm not defending Harlow in any way (he had said himself that he had no love for animals at all), I do have to point out that the initial separation wasn't actually for research purposes. There had been a bad case of TB going around in the laboratory, so in order to keep the baby monkeys from getting ill and dying as well, they were separated from their mothers. So yeah, it was innocent at the beginning. :)
