Answer to Question 1

b

Answer to Question 2

Cases have arisen in which parents or other caregivers failed to fulfill their responsibilities leaving children alone or placing them in isolated circumstances. From analysis of these situations, social scientists have documented cases in which children were deliberately raised in isolation. A look at the lives of children (such as Anna and Genie) who suffer emotional abuse provides important insights into the importance of a positive socialization process and the negative effects of social isolation.
