[quote=Anonymous]The “object permanence” thing is so dumb, I am sorry. The science on this is only about when you can measure a baby tracking objects in the lab. They do it by watching their eyes following objects. That doesn’t mean that before that they “think you’ve disappeared.” I mean, conceptualizing that something is was here and has now disappeared sounds like object permanence to me. It would probably be more like they just forgot the object existed but I don’t think the experiments even show that - it’s more just they can’t or don’t predict their path when hidden. Why would babies cry for you if they thought you had disappeared? Why would they root for nipples they can’t see? How can they be calm with their eyes closed? There’s a lot of stupid things that “experts” write and women accept but the object permanence thing is really the stupidest imo. [/quote]
