Netflix's six-part docuseries 'Babies' tediously explores the science of infant development. Read the review:
gave me literal nightmares. After watching the nutrition-themed second episode of this six-part Netflix docuseries on the science of infant development, I dreamt that I neglected my newborn, forgetting to feed it and keeping it zipped up in a toiletry bag all day. "But doesn't it need, like, iron and zinc and stuff?!" I pleaded into the dreamworld void while also bolstering the show's fifth-episode assertion that sleep is a memory storage mechanism.
For every awe-inspiring moment showcasing a newborn or toddler breaking through a neuromotor barrier, we're privy to at least three times as many scenes of an American or European researcher describing their theories, experiments or findings in excruciating detail. Even more frustratingly,presents these findings as ultimate truth instead of just one notch on the continuum of global research. Science isn't a monolith, after all.
The oldest science is astronomy; the newest is neuropsychology. For thousands of years, we've been much more comfortable studying the farthest objects in the universe than the closest ones: our own brains. The minds of our young, in particular, have been traditionally seen as tabula rasas, thus rendering kids ripe for the various crackpot theories that have ruled childrearing since the days of Jean Jacques Rousseau.
There is no doubt babies can seem like unknowable mewling creatures at times. But maybe their mystery is part of their charm.
