Postive vs. Negative thoughts

[Kevin]

Jessica,

Could a baby even grow up without love? It would seem that a parents love for their children would be even more prolific than fear to sustain life in a dangerous situation?

Kevin,

I suppose it depends on your definition of love. I believe a baby can grow with care and contact, and maybe not love. Children raised in orphanages may be an example.

I do know that a very very long time ago, a study in psychology was done to determine what language a human would speak if it were not exposed to any language.

A group of babies was selected to test on. They were given food and their diapers changed, but testers tried to keep any human contact to a minimum and I believe no one spoke around the test babies.

Tragically all of the babies died

It was determined that humans need contact and care to survive.

But I still don't think it is useful for us to demonize and dissassociate from fear.

Our bodies are doing the right thing to send fear signals, even if our consciousness knows better.

I think we should commend our bodies in those cases for doing the appropriate thing.

If we send conscious messages to our body that it is doing something wrong when it is functioning perfectly, I think we only make things worse.
