Without the guidance of a matriarchal herd, she failed to develop proper maternal instincts, unlike young females in breeding herds who practice caregiving as…-

Chapter 34: Alice
The chapter explores the neurological and developmental reasons behind infants' inability to remember early experiences, attributing it to their lack of language capacity. It explains that infants' vocal cords are not fully developed, limiting their communication to distress cries triggered by a direct neural pathway from the amygdala to the larynx. This primal alarm system is so effective that even individuals with no childcare experience, like college students, instinctively respond to a baby's cry. The…-
