The interesting thing with Oxana is that she had the beginings of rudimentary language or the basics if you will when she had begun to live with the dogs. So they were able to teach her how to speak. I guess if the child is with the animals or outside of human communication and contact before the basics are learnt by the child, then nothing can be done. The learn to smile thing is also really interesting. I wonder if the same could be said of babies who grow up with parents who never smile at them or communicate with them?
