Steven Bartlett asks the uncomfortable question every employer faces: “What do I do? Give people three years off when they have a kid?” Erica Komisar’s blunt answer: “Give them as much time off as you possibly can — men and women, whoever is the primary attachment figure. Then give...

Secure attachment during infancy lays the foundation for our lifelong mental and physical health. As I wind down this week’s series on infant/toddler attachment, I wanted to conclude with a few final words about why it matters so much. Obviously, strong relational connections between parents and children are beneficial in and of themselves. But there’s more to it than that. Attachment grounds and shapes our long-term mental health as well as our ability to enter into positive relationships with others. You see, children who are securely attached tend to be just that: Secure. This allows them to navigate the world independently, with confidence in themselves and their abilities. It almost seems contradictory that independence would spring from dependence. But it most surely does. The more love and care children receive during their earliest months and years and the more attentively and predictably their needs are met by treasured loved ones, the more they experience the world as safe place. And this is a gift to both the brain and the body. When the human body is not flooded daily with stress hormones and when anxiety occurs - not as a constant state - but more occasionally in response to life’s challenges, not only are we better prepared to deal with it - but our bodies don’t bear the long-term burden of a constant stress response. This is a fascinating area of early development that we are still only beginning to fully understand, but suffice it to say that positive early experiences - both in the home and in conjunction with high quality early education and care programs- are increasingly linked to lifelong health. This brain-body connection has huge implications not only for individual children, but for our public policy. A tweet is hardly the place to unpack this conversation in full, but know that my new book, The Daycare Myth (which can be ordered from the link in my bio) explores in detail the disconnect between what we know about the science of early development and how it is enacted (or, more frequently, not enacted) in our public policy. The costs - both developmentally and economically - are astronomical. And not only to individuals, but to taxpayers - who would be far better served by making small investments in getting things right in the first place than paying for the results of our inaction across the lifespan. It all begins with attachment. Thanks for following along this week! ——— This lovely video - which, to be clear, is NOT an illustration of insecure attachment - was shared to IG by olliejamesfaulds.

Sam Altman: “Most people give up on things way too early” “Knowing when to quit and knowing when to give up on something, there’s no perfect answer to that. It’s really challenging to even get that approximately correct. But I think most people give up on things way too early.” Sam continues: “The mistake that most people make — particularly young entrepreneurs — is they try something, it does not immediately work, and after seven weeks, they say, ‘I tried this thing and it’s just not meant to be.’… The satirical version of this are people who are 23 and have started 14 startups because they give up on everyone before it could ever possibly be successful. These things are really hard. They take a really long time. There are a lot of critics. There are a lot of people who say: your thing sucks; it’s going to fail; it’s really stupid.” There’s also what Y Combinator calls “The Trough of Sorrow” where, as Sam describes, “no one even decides to say it sucks because no one cares at all. And that is at least as demotivating.” But this doesn’t necessarily mean it won’t work. Sam explains: “Most of the founders that I have spent a lot of time with that have gone on to be super successful spent a very long time on their idea when a lot of other people would have given up. Either people said it sucks, or people said nothing about it at all. And a framework that I have for when to give up versus when to keep working is that it should be an internal, rather than an external, decision. If people aren’t using it or people are saying it’s bad, that alone is not a reason to give up. You want to pay some attention to that — they might be right. But the best entrepreneurs I know make an internal decision about when to give up or when to keep working on something. It’s basically: when you have run out of ideas, and something is not working, then it is a good time to stop.” Video source: Y Combinator (2016)

Why? This is why. This is our battle to fight until they can fight on their own beside us and then one day they will have to fight their battles without us. No, I don’t personally have children, I’m not sure if I’m able sometimes I’m not sure if I could handle the heartbreak of what I see this world becoming even if I could but God has a plan for me, I’ll leave that to Him and I and stay grateful and I will do everything I can in my life to protect your children. Babies are blessings. They are ALWAYS blessings. Human life is Gods gift and miracle to us. Evil tries to destroy children as early as possible if they can even make it out of the womb, that’s how much Satan hates humanity. Hurt people, hurt people. I hate this evil the most. One main reason I spoke out against the insanity the past 4 years was because I could see how hard it would be for parents to speak out and support their families. They faced cancellation and being fired for simply asking logical questions. I didn’t have children, I felt I could help shake the cage free to start having the conversations. There were mature conversations to be had but we were silenced, censored and fired if we so much as posted a meme or quote that signaled we might not be going along with the forced narrative. Parents, you have got your voices back now but never forget how hard they came for you and your children. They will do it again. This IS the hill to die on. Let’s make The United States a place where children are safe, in Jesus name, let that be what the U.S. becomes known for. Protecting children. ❤️🙏
