Sheltered kids and their confined adult life


Babies need love, contact and exposure to experiences. In the absence of these elements, the development of their brain gets stunted.
It gets atrophied from lack of engagement and as a result the infant may fail to properly develop motor skills, understand emotions and sometimes struggles with language acquisition.
Children who grow up in environments that lack the interactions and the challenges vital to the building of the brain, could develop learning disabilities that would greatly limit their development.
Overprotection is as bad as total neglect, it creates frail, oversensitive and overdependent adults.
As all the hard decisions were made for them since an early age, these sheltered kids grow up with an under-developed decision making "muscles", and they freeze in fear each time their life comes to a fork in the road, and a path needs to be picked.
This unatural shielding from their supposedly hostile environment instills in them a sense of dread from the unfamiliar.
The cautioning and warning voice of their parents continually  echoes in their heads inhibiting their natural drive for a better and fuller life.
These kids get deprived of the friction vital to their growth, they age to be soft, overly co-dependent and easily thrown off kilter by live and its vagaries.
