I think they proved that you can teach someone all the words in the world. And they may be able to remember them. But that putting those words together to form language. Thats something we have to develop early on. And cannot go back and teach. Cuz I remember them teaching the girl tons and tons of new words. And she made so much progress. But ultimately she came to a point where all she could do was learn words. Forming speech and sentences it just didnt happen.

Odds are that the kid will never be function as a normal human being. I saw a special on the discovery channel or something like that. And there was this case of a girl in the 70's whos father had never allowed anyone to talk to her. And her brain just didnt develop at all. Her body developed physically but she kept the brain of a 8 month old or something like that. Scientist were trying to see if a baby who had never learned to communicate could be taught at a later age. And they learned from her that there is a key point in the cognitive and language development of a child where these bridges have to be built. And if they arent built during that certain time they never will be. So I dont think this child will have much luck. Its really sad though. The mom should be put in jail. I hope he can help aid psychologist and scientist who want to better understand this phenomena.
