Children with abusive parents are more prone to brain atrophy

The difference in the brain and intelligence of young children depends on how parents treat them.

Photographs of American neurologists show that the brain of a three-year-old child loved by his parents (left) is much larger than the abused or neglected child (on the right), according to the Telegraph. The right brain contains more dark spots and lacks some important brain areas compared to the left brain.

Research results show that the brain defects make the child abused by parents unable to develop fully, become less intelligent when growing up, less able to empathize with others, easily addicted to ghosts. drug, more susceptible to mental problems or violence than children who grow up in love.

Allan Schore, a professor at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), USA, who participated in the study, said that 80% of human brain storms were created in the first two years of life. Brain cell growth is the result of interaction between young children and primary caregivers, often mothers. The development of blood vessels in the brain depends on the positive impact of the mother on the baby.

Schore points out that, if a child is not treated well in the first two years of life, many genes are responsible for brain function, including intelligence, which cannot function.

The finding has great implications for social policy makers. They will have early interventions, instructing mothers on how to treat their children so that their brains are fully developed.

"Early intervention is a potentially social change. Next-generation children will grow better, have fewer offenses and adults will be better educated," said Andrea Leadsom, Bao's MP. Englishman, said.
