Human Nurture
I agree that as a child grows up, they're environment shapes who they are forever. It is beyond ridiculous how a parent, or anyone for that matter, can literally lock their child in a room they're whole lives. I don't care if you are trying to keep them out of danger, I am sure you can find a better way to do that than depriving them from living their life! The girl in this video is forever affected by her lack of a childhood and will have to live with limitations the rest of her life. It is terrible to think that anyone could ever do such a thing. I have been greatly affected by my family, friends, and anyone that has made an impact on me throughout my life. My parents raised me with certain values, common sense, and a specific understanding of the world. My friends have also shaped my personality and the way I interact with others. I also agree that humans crave socialization and love to interact and connect with others. Which is another reason why I sympathize so much for this girl who never had that privilege when she was growing up. She barely had the opportunity to feel emotions or think thoughts. Us humans tend to get bored very easily. We are always planning something, doing something, thinking something and don't usually like to just sit and have nothing to think about and nobody to socialize with. I am so thankful for my family, friends and others who have helped shaped me, mostly for the better( I hope!!) and gave me that push to become who I am today, and who I will be in the future.

Good for you being thankful. This unit always makes me thankful too. Be careful with the writing - it should be "we humans..." But sociologically, I do not think it is a human desire to be busy, I think it is an American one. That was the point we were getting at in the last chapter.
