Think for a moment what life was like for a newborn for the first several months before the panic-demic. New people showing up and making the baby interact with them. Things being waved in their faces and gifts like drifting mobiles and all kinds of toys. Now, post panic-demic nobody comes, probably many fewer interactions and many fewer toys. Could that effect the “IQ tests?”

Studies with rats revealed that the richer the rat’s environment...toys, things to climb on...the more creases in their brains. The more creases, the more intelligent and the better they can solve mazes and other things they put rats through.

An excellent point.

“Think for a moment what life was like for a newborn for the first several months before the panic-demic.”

You are correct; I have been saying this since the beginning of this stupidity. Children develop cognitive and social skill in a very particular order...and quickly. It’s not just babies..toddlers and elementary school kids are also going to be very badly affected by this...depending on how “normally” their parents led their lives.
