American experts decided to solve the riddle of the century - to find out why the very babes are smiling. What affects their mood, is it possible to artificially cause a child to have fun?Photo:Getty Images 13 mothers with babies under four months old were invited to the San Diego Institute for an experiment. For whole days, psychologists watched the parents and their babies and came to an unexpected conclusion: the children are not smiling at all because of a good mood, everything is much more complicated! The child does not care whether the sun is shining outside the window, whether cheerful music is playing. He smiles for a reason - this is a thoughtful step. Yes, at such a young age, the crumbs are very smart. When toddlers feel they can get their parents' attention to the maximum and receive the care they want, they just smile! And my mother also smiles in response, which, by the way, is important. This fact became the second discovery of the study. Children not only smile, cunningly guessing the right moment, but also do it with the expectation of getting exactly the same reaction, because it is important for them to see the smile of their parents. It turns out that four-month-old babies are already experienced and are able to make us blur in smile on request.
