yes. I was impressed watching Babies on Netflix. She showed her experiments and her battle with peer review. I had to search for more! ;) ... I hear awful things about Norwegian approach to upbringing, so I was almost amazed she had courage to say "I experimented on my own baby". In the land of Barnevernet!
Early childhood development is such a minefield and it's so important that we get it right. Ted talks lime this one are absolutely paramount in achieving that! It's so disturbing to me that most of the ideas surrounding modern minded perspectives, regarding early childhood development are still perceived as being somewhat 'holistic' and almost always 'alternative' and 'hippie-esque' in their roots?? Its only provides further evidence that worldwide societies need to start valuing compassionate and individually specific methods of early childhood development as opposed to relying on more traditional ways of medievally minded, restrictive and also extremely disciplined methods of mentoring our children during their early childhood years ♥️
6:54 there might be a dangerous confusion about potty-training. A good guidance is voluntary assistance. The good aspect of potty training is motor independence. However, this all mutated in western cultures into a behavioral training ("you must do it on a potty"), and even bladder training ("you must wait"). The latter are harmful, esp. if "bad behavior" is penalized. Let us then clearly celebrate a baby who can move around and do stuff on her own without pushing her onto a potty. A good variant of "potty training" is to inspire a kid to use a standard western toilet (assuming size appropriate for safety ... we do not want to flush the baby :) (fantastic lecture, by the way)
I’ve been waiting so long for someone capable of talking about early development of babies competently..

Wowww@!!! Most beneficial ted talk ever
Watch at 1.75x speed.
Oh that’s helped thanks 😂
She was abit Nervous
She is an awesome professor though. I really appreciated her teaching and lab at NTNU
Very difficult to listen to someone who is clearly terrified.
if Audrey is stressed, then so much praise for bravely presenting an essential message!
Then it's appreciable that she successfully completed all of her talk despite being terrified.
9 minutes in and she says nothing
don't drink alcohol while listening! :) ... she is spewing gold! :)
