if we understand other people why is it hard to understand babies?

Answer 1

Uh...because they don't speak our language? We *don't* understand "other people"--only those who know the same language we do...

Answer 2

Babies aren't all that difficult to understand. A great deal simpler than most adults, if I may venture to say so. Adults play games about their emotions, pretending to be happy when they are not, and pretending to care about people they'd rather watch die. Babies are simple, and honest.

If a baby is smiling, you can bet it's really happy and not just playing at the thought. If the baby is crying, something is wrong. Your choices typically include hunger, a dirty diaper, lonliness, or some physical pain or illness. As the adult, it's your job to find out which. It's far easier than trying to figure out why your teen is sulking, though, as you typically don't have the "he said, she said, and you do this" factor which growing older and wiser adds to the mix.

Babies may not have a history or civilization behind them to study, or a set language to learn, but that makes it easier to undesrtand them. YOU make the language. YOU make the history. YOU get to build and shape the child by interacting.

The only problems in understanding babies works against understanding other people as well. Ignorance and no will to change the problem. No effort to understand.

If you talking about trying to understand babies cues and such, try reading Secrets of the Baby Whisperer! I'm reading now and quite enjoying it! It helps figure out what your baby is saying and what they need! It also helps you put them on a routine! (Not a timetable) just an easy going routine, that is totally easy to follow!
I am due in January, but my friend has 3 kids and has used the same book for all 3 and works like a charm!
Some will tell you it's not a good book, that it says you can't hold your baby or cuddle them! It's not true! sometimes babies just cry when they need some love! It does teach them a little independence! Not much, but whatever they can handle!
Try reading it, your local library should have it!
I recommend it and am going to try it with my baby!
Good Luck!

Babies have a special bond with their moms. A mom can always understand what the baby want. She knows what specific cry means what. It takes time to develop.
The baby needs time to learn and communicate with others. Things do not happen from one day to the next, this is the reason why others around the babies, don't understand. Mom comes first, Dad and brothers come next, then everybody down the line.

Answer 5

Like faith, slicing, bullying, pre-teen relationship, YOLO, empty lyrics, and fad tattoos, those are products of on the prompt's present day society hunting for purpose, which potential, objectives, normality, and an section to belong inspite of their (rightfully) low vanity - and it really is actual spurred on by way of their personal failure (quite than carefully tempered through it). they pick some thing which will tell them they have created some thing magical and carried out some thing that they see as particular for the international, being concerned not if... contained in the acceptable and down the line, it may finally end up yet another depressing and determined fabricated from a good extra ill and overcrowded society. it really is what they're informed to do, it really is a tangible signal that they are valid. it really is the position human beings locate their chuffed endings in each and every of the flicks, and does not a cheerful ending and a 2d probability be tremendous once you've made one of those mess of your own existence? And the extra it really is denied them, the more durable they are going to pursue it.

Answer 6

Its not really hard to understand them you just got to make an effort at trying to understand the baby.

Answer 7

Young babies aren't speaking any language. They're just testing out sounds, trying to replicate the noises they hear around them. They're finding out how their mouths and vocal cords work.

Most toddlers have grasped the concept of language, but they're still working on getting the mechanics down.

An interesting fact I learned in my developmental psych class in college: babies are born with the ability to learn to understand and speak any language in the world, but within the first few years after birth, they "specialize" on the sounds they're exposed to and lose the easy ability to learn other languages. That's why it's so much easier to learn foreign languages as a child.

Answer 8

bit of a daft question but, the simple answer is babies dont talk they dont do anything except cry when they want something or when something is wrong, it a guessing game. Plus when we talk to babies and ask whats wrong, they do not understand anything they have no reasoning.

Answer 9

Who says that we can always understand other people. There are some people out there that I'm no sure they even speak a language. Its greek to me.

Answer 10

Because babies can't speak to us and tell us what's wrong...they just cry and we have to figure out what their cries mean. It's like taking a dog to the vet. The dog can't tell the vet what's wrong...the vet has to do tests and guess.

Answer 11

They speak gibberish, you speak English. Hire some kid with siblings to interpret- most of the time, they ACTUALLY know what the baby wants/needs.
