Quote
Small children have a phenomenally well-developed ability to do what researchers have named: “in-tuning”—the baby’s ability to sense or “tune in to” their parents’ feelings and moods. This remarkable ability is at work day and night and they are able to sense this over long distances. It is what makes it possible for a baby to co-operate with their parents, but when the parents are highly insecure, anxious or frustrated the baby cannot work out who and what they are dealing with. They simply receive too many different and conflicting messages from their parents.
