at some point you have to realize that you understand infants less than the parents using this method, and certainly less than the ones doing the studies. you argument is equivalent to saying we should stick to arranged marriages only because that's how it's always been done and it clearly worked for many cultures.

Arranged marriages are in no way related to deep behavioral traits of mammal evolution.

Anyone who knows any adult who suffered any measure of neglect in childhood would 'know' otherwise. Especially the adults who have been neglected as infants.

I understand your viewpoint and sentiment. But I do reiterate that those do not negate evolution.

I think we discussed enough in this thread. I'll bail out of this discussion now. Thanks.
