Dealing with a screaming infant is like trying to debug an entire programming class inside one try and catch block. No matter what went wrong inside the try-catch, the exception is always the same-a screaming baby.
So we have to start with trial and error approach. So far we have figured out the potential errors such as: dirty diaper, gas passing( or unable to), hunger, tired but can't sleep frustration, or a combination of the above and baby can't remember the priority. There is another possible error lingers in the background, but so far turned to be always a negative, I e. sickness. There is another possible conclusion which during real life debugging would come to mind but always turned tone false too. That is "baby is crying for no reason" (this error is impossible to fix") and equally in both case I will be proved wrong. Baby always cry for a reason, just like any computer program is always logical, so all errors are fixable. At least it is the case for infant. His neurological circuit is not yet fully functional, So he is incapable of manipulation, ie not spoilable.
Totally agree with you.. babies cry for reasons cause they can't talk, cry is the crucial way to communicate with you. It's a task for parents, how fast you can get his signal.
ReplyDeleteI used to think the baby is trying to make all different component work out when the system going live in a harsh. A bad project. Nothing is tested before, thus she/he is really in a pain. I always imagine the digest tunnels chat with each other: "what's this? " "Never seen it before..." "you know how to process it?" "God, how should I know!" "ok, let's push them out directly... no processing at all! Go!" Puhh...
ReplyDeleteSome book said babies are in pain, most likely tummy part, the thing is nobody never knows. I think this sounds reasonable and willing to believe it. At least such theory makes me more patient and considerate...
hahaha, that's funny, esp. the part of the internal organ's conversation...
ReplyDeletei agree with the imagined process. but my conclusion is that it is a thoroughly tested system, cuz it can handle so many different/unknown situation(or input food source), without causing a failure.
in fact it shows how adaptive and amazing nature's design is... :)
