Another gift to American from the communist Chinese.
You can’t analyze a one year old for being cognitive ... physical reaction maybe.
MAYBE the reporter intentionally changed the wording from "physical reaction" to "cognative" ?
As intended.
Yeah that’s what I was thinking. How in the world do they know that.
Must be a slow news day With Nothing going on with hunter Biden or in Afghanistan and all.
Most babies cry or smile and go "Gheee!" while waving their arms about. These ones just lay there and go "Derp!" but already vote demoncrap.
They also have little baby laminated Vaxx ID cards.
Fake news. How would they do a reliable IQ test on a two year old?! Most are still nursing and drooling. Horseshiite!
There was already an autism epidemic even before this. Kids that never get past 3 or 4 years old. Just what we needed
The physical reaction is the result of their cognitive processing. If you take your baby in for a physical, your doctor will be checking for his development in terms of his physical activities and responses to stimuli.
These children have received very little stimuli (human voices, being picked
They’re not testing them as infants, in any case, but as young toddlers, when the damage is clearly done.
I worked with mentally handicapped adults, and we had those with organic causes (brain damage, syndromes, etc.) and a good number who had what was called “cultural deprivation” and functioned as retarded although there was nothing wrong with them. But they had been neglected, never spoken to and thus didn’t process or produce speak very well, or even abused, such as being abandoned, locked in rooms, etc. The effects of infant deprivation of stimuli lasted a lifetime and were irreversible.
That’s not how autism works.
My thoughts, too.
This stat is a lot of cr**.
It’s not fake news. Essentially, these infants are almost feral children, brought up isolated from human contact and stimuli such as human speech, human movement, etc., not to mention human affection.
The article notes that the effect was most severe among lower income children, who are sometimes culturally deprived anyway, even without being locked in their homes and kept away from normal human contact.
At what age can you test IQ?
“Autism is not a learning disability, but around half of autistic people may also have a learning disability.”
That’s more of what I was going for.
People locked down with not a lot of things to do.
“Hey momma lets go to bed, Okay”
“Come here mom, papas got something for you”
Try reading the article. This is absolutely a fact. The isolation led to a 20% IQ difference with those born outside of the lockdown period.
Infants learn everything, including how to walk upright and use speech instead of grunts, from people around them. These children were isolated and in many cases didn’t even have parents around them. The study points out that in the case of lower income people, who suffered the most, their parents were often essential workers who left them, sometimes alone, sometimes with an elderly or uninterested relative. The normal coming and going of people, school or childcare was forbidden by our masters, cutting at the very roots of socialization and learning.
