💨 Abstract

The study conducted by researchers at Washington University in St. Louis reveals that while good parenting can significantly improve a newborn's language and cognitive skills, it may not be enough to overcome the negative impacts of prenatal social disadvantage (lack of resources to meet basic needs). The research, published in the Journal of Pediatrics, suggests that supportive parenting behaviors can improve cognitive and language scores, but only up to a certain point.
