Military training and babies

[whitewriter]

I complained to Pete's buddy Den that when you have a baby your IQ drops significantly and he said, he understands. He gave this analogy that demonstrated that somehow, even though he hasn't experienced it - he has in some ways experienced it. He said, going through military training in Taiwan, they want to make you stupid on purpose. That pre military training, his brain felt much faster but then during training, he struggled to make decisions or to make simple calculations (like 1+1=2). He said this was done by the training on purpose because they don't want you to make your own decisions, they want you to follow blindly- any instructions or the needs of the team/army as required.

Just as a baby wants their needs to be obeyed.... nature brings on the same mentality in the mother. The baby brain is legit. Supposedly it lasts 2 years.


Yikes.
