Readin Your Babies Mind

I found this article to be interesting, to say the least. The study on infant empathy really struck home to me. The study showed that infants will cry when they hear another baby cry. However they did not cry when they heard a recording of themselves crying. It fascinates me to see how an infant can distinguish, whether it be empathy or irritation, between themselves and another baby crying. We have always just seen children as cute little babies imitating our actions. The finding of these experiments continue to amaze me.
