If talking to your baby is the most important factor than wouldn't being on welfare benefit the babies? Going to work an putting your baby in a daycare would drastically reduce the amount of daily interactions with their caregivers Comment from : Nigel V

Still experiment! Comment from : Keith Daragon

it IS the income lmao it's extremely short-sighted to think income is unrelated to how much parents talk to their kids it's literally the number 1 thing if you have more money, you can literally afford to spend more time talking to your baby you don't just have to educate parents, you have to give them enough time to do all these things a rich family might able to afford to have one stay at home parent or hire a nanny or something and have someone who can basically spend the entire day talking to the baby a poor family won't be able to do that Comment from : Isha Thakor

Okay so… for someone who has been on wic… the food options are processed and absolutely horrible Y’all go by the FDA… look into research done outside of the USA when it comes to nutrition At least I can purchase farm foods for my kids with EBT… even if that means I go without I’ve gotten better food from food banks than we get from wic Comment from : ianna Zoda

superb information, simple and powerful! Comment from : Kautilya Pratap Singh

Love!! A FTM here and I always try to talk to my baby! I read Spanish English books I teach him sign language here and there I talk to him about what we’re doing and what we can see, I only hope that my sweet boy thrives Comment from : Lauren Astudillo

Anyone wanted to just comfort that baby It was hard to watch 😩 Comment from : Maya M

She had me in the first half but lost me in the second Comment from : al schirjaev

This was a tough watch for me as a parent I stopped it a few times and had to push myself to continue and finish brEvery child is different and milestones are attained at different levels Breathe parents Take one day a time Comment from : Hunpiya

I think still face experiment is just cruel! Comment from : Tulay Bayram (Official)

It's not language/more words Kind interaction with a child empowers it Comment from : V Ramkrishna

So boring and repetitive Comment from : gdjicaAnaliza

So I send my 2 years old to daycare Does that mean I'm doing it wrong? She stays around 56 hours there Comment from : Kim Jojo

Is she talking about third grade of kindergarten or elementary school ? Comment from : Jo RU

3rd grade? My daughter is 5 and she can read almost fluently What are you guys doing over there in the Amerikas?brI mean im pritty sure my daughter could have learned to read already when she was to If I knew it was so easy to learn Took me like a month or two and after that she was on her ownchildren loves books and I dont so im very pleased she can read alreadybrAnd im not saying this to brag Im only saying that teaching children to read is suuuuper easy to fix and its not really a problem seems more like you make it a problem This is crazy Comment from : coolbeans

This presentation is all over the place and barely coherent Comment from : Ali Ryan

Well this is definitely outdated research The value of communication is decreasing by the day Comment from : Rassia Melo

I remember increasing my vocabulary due to listening to a lot of talk radio Sadly a lot of it was sort of sad, boring, investigative, heavy stuff - so happy they have podcasts now where there is such a massive diversity of interests! Comment from : Aia

Eye opening! Comment from : Atifa Deshamukhya

My husband did not go to college yet sounds very educated and has a wider vocabulary than me (who went to university) my parents did not go to college His parents went to university He says his father (he graduated from an IV league school) would always read books to him and so he found a love for reading (mostly fantasy) I don’t have memories of my parents reading to me I remember watching a lot of TV while my husband did not have cable Long story short read to your baby/child! Comment from : Darling Darlene

Great , motivating and inspiring talk MamAppreciate the efforts you have brought forth for the development of kids ! Comment from : DrAyesha Ather

How about multiple languages at home, is it good or bad? In our family we speak English, Mandarin and grandma speaks in dialect Comment from : Mira

Now mothers are hardwired in their devices and that experiment with the baby is a reality with so many babies today Comment from : Aileen Hernandez

Exposure to language till grade 3 by interaction Comment from : User

How is it not the issue of income? If a child has both parents and let's say one of them could afford to stay home for more than 3 months after birth/adoption that's one scenario and let's take a single mom who has to work 2 jobs so she could afford rent, food and child care, what child would experience more interaction and receive word nutrition from the parents? Come on Comment from : 10romashka

Poverty plays a big role in language Telling people what to do and not showing them way to enrich their personal life doesn't change anything Comment from : Andrea St Luce

Being that my two boys were taken from me 3 years ago there's a big age difference at least by 11 years I have a 6-year-old and a 17 year old but anyway I wanted to say I sure hope that they are being read to everyday even if it's in silence the morality of the situation will help Comment from : MimiPrice

Luz Carolina Martinez thinks Alina and Tanya are stank not Kenia Comment from : K Alonzo

Thank you so much !!! This is a real blessing to have this treasure with us Comment from : sai trinath dubba

It's this disappointing that this video was posted 8 years ago and only has 12m views, its should have 3 billion views by now, this shouldn't actually be a YouTube video but content taught to each and every health institution and educational facility Comment from : Straltus Troy

Interesting and inspiring Comment from : Mahvia Gul Clinical Psychologist

Awesome context Even patents in poverty who have access to this knowledge can offer their child a vocabulary rich environment by accessing free community resources Comment from : Silvia Figueroa

I'm really REALLY tired of seeing people shame parents in poverty for underperformingbrbrParents in poverty have a much higher toxic stress level Parents in poverty are more commonly experiencing drug and alcohol addiction Parents in poverty are often working several minimum wage jobs and the kids are being put in the care of the cheapest sitters who usually have more than they can handle on their plates too Parents in poverty are more often disabled physically or mentally and do not have the ability to buy all the products out there that help make life easier Parents in poverty have a higher rate of violence and toxic relationships Parents in poverty cannot afford the health care they need to keep optimal health physically, mentally, emotionally Parents in poverty are not only income insecure, but food insecure and housing insecure sometimes just plain broke, hungry, homeless Sometimes all parents can do with their child is survive each daybrbrSo until someone is ready to step up and level the playing fields that matter in this classist and capitalistic society, can we at least stop pointing our fingers downstream and start looking at the disease instead of trying to treat all these lesser symptoms?!?!?!brbrThanks you for coming to my TedTalk bcringe/b Comment from : Trixie Devine

Great information, absolutely needed! brI do have a criticism about wic and the food it pays for It seems to be mostly highly processed food and not any organic foodsbrI do believe we are what we eat! Comment from : Kathie Lautenslager

The most compassionatebrTaught the QuranbrCreate humanity, brand taught them SPEECHbrSurah Ar Rahman (1-4) Comment from : piko setiawan

I wonder how she feels now after Covid 🥲 Comment from : KT Bee2

OMG🤩 Comment from : Sardar Monsumov

But I grew up with wealthy parents and though my mother talked to me a lot my father didn't Other wealthy kids had mom's who didn't pay much attention to them at all There seems to be no correlation that I can see And my African American friends talked a lot to their babies and kids Those kids had HUGE vocabularies These were working class people I had very few words at the same age as did my friends from rich families Comment from : RG1 WhiteyWins

She shows how important the 1st few months of a baby are! Absolutely very important! Comment from : YtubeUserr

This is a so wonderful and inspiring Ted talk I think talking to our children from the womb and their childhood is the good thing that can happen to their lives Thank you so much Comment from : Imelda kora

When I had my first born i was young and when ever I was speaking with my child my boyfriend now my husband will ask me wether I am insane repeated times and this really drive me but so I stop speaking with my childbrWhen he was age 3 and 5 he couldn’t talk clearly and as at now he doesn’t know how to communicate with a person and academically bad but my other two kids are really doing greatbrHe are the other hand is a headache to his father is not like am happy but at times men harm their kids through their women without knowing Comment from : Dorothy Kaff Jamboe

So is there anyway for those who are already affected and have passed grade3? Comment from : Dorothy Kaff Jamboe

With the help of Doctor Isibor on youtube using his Herbal supplement on my 4 year's old son who had speech delay has improved positively and started saying few words and now he can speak fluently Comment from : Ruth Rosey

Also……my son is an only child with just me for the most part during the day When he was 1, we spent 3 weeks around my BIG family with multiple children My husband noticed that he was trying to talk more after visiting for 1 1/2 weeks It is true that children learn words more/faster when spoken to on a regular basis Comment from : A Queens World

While I agree on principle- yes, speaking more to your child, exposing your child to as much as possible, gives them a great advantage-!- but it’s not THAT simple As a person who grew up pretty poor, but in a country where there is support for the parents- I can recognize privilege (like my own!) when I see itbr Oh, and nit-picking here, but „Professionals“ should maybe be labeled „Academics“ (?) because there are more than enough „professionals“ in the working class…br So while an academic or professional in the working class can be considered poor for whatever their life situation is - they still enjoy different treatment - they had the fundamental education to actually pass it on The mental health for a poor white person is, in my opinion, also not comparable with someone of another race who constantly is confronted with racism- and all that factors in with jobs/living conditions and how much time you can actually invest in talking to your child While she tried to touch on that subject, she didn’t word it correctly and probably made it sound a bit offensive to some people (and didn’t elaborate on the deeper seeded problem - that the communal support has to be in place before every „class“ can afford to spend the time to talk more with their kids) I mean, to an academic it should be a no-brainer that a wealthy family can have a parent stay at home and talk endlessly to the child vs a family has to work and the kid is in daycare with 20 other children and cannot enjoy the individual attention… Comment from : Kaylee / Abejas

Perfect Comment from : Otp Share

💯💯💯 Comment from : Dr Seku Gathers

The problem in education today is that teachers are pressured to pass students who cannot read Many educators in leadership are more concerned with the percentage of graduates rather than filling in the gaps and teaching our kids Higher graduation rates make the schools look good We need to face the problem head-on and be honest with the fact that we are failing so many of our kids Parents and schools need to work together, and educators need to get back to teaching the basics rather than political or ideological agendas Comment from : Cat Fisher

That experiment made me cry omg Comment from : Keisha Young

What a great Ted talk! Comment from : Marisa

Thank you Comment from : Nelly Afand

Old southern lady needs to make sure she speaks correctly because some of these reiterations are completely silly compared to whatever word she initially speaks She corrects college educated to high school educated; and actual says the word “unexpectable” which is not a word I get it when you’re nervous and giving a big speech but it makes her seem uneducated Comment from : Derek Macdonell

Language nutrition…wow I like that Comment from : Ulysee James

Can you say mic drop-I’ve watch this at least half dozen times and been sharing with everybody-Thank you so much Comment from : holyddogg7

🙏👏🏻 Comment from : Ayşe Yakar

As someone who talks A LOT and had a lot of great interaction with her child, my child still had a speech delay Just a reminder for parents, every child is different Stop putting your child’s successes and failures as a direct compliment or insult to your well-being If you’re a good parent, you’re always striving to learn more, you’re watching videos like this, you’re finding ways to be a better influence in a child’s life, but every human life is different Comment from : ElisabethWykertComedy

please help Afghanistan children @tedx they are so helpless Comment from : MEMES

This video goes against Facebook community standards Comment from : Chloe Ward

Just a thought from my analysis on this video is that the computer era has added to the problem with language development in new norms since a lot of jobs are email based and the mothers don’t talk as nearly as much as they use too while pregnant I would really like to see a study on this to record the amount of speech is being used for different mothers through out the day and compare to others and the results in spiking autism in this country Comment from : Robert Basta

So when is she running for president Comment from : unmei marie

I know it's an old video but Wonder if reading to your baby should be done facing them Comment from : Allura Reid

WOW MIND BLOWING-DEFINETLY WILL BE TALKING 1000X MORE TO MY 1 YEAR OLD-DADDY LOVE YOU JUDAH!!!!!!!!! Comment from : holyddogg7

I appreciate the research to support the new babies so we can build a strong foundation for the new babies My question is what do we do to truly support the 70 of Georgia students who are NOT reading at a 3rd grade reading level? Comment from : Coach Ian

Let's layer this data with the number of stay at home mothers or fathers in each income bracket Bet it shows a different picture, income and education matters! Yes, you can overcome these factors by making sure daycares and learning centers close the language gap brbrI'm glad I didn't share this advertisement for that program Maybe it'll help eventually but so would a marriage initiative with a raise in the minimum wage Comment from : Samantha Steele

My son is 9 months old, ı am trying to read book to him but my baby is not interested in these books He takes the book and bring his mouth What should ı do? Iam playing with him and talking also But ı want to read with him Any suggestion? Comment from : Ayse C
