Guests: Murielle Dibiase and Marella Averill from Southern Kennebec Child Development Services Note:nbsp; The first few minutes of the program were not recorded.nbsp; Here is the quote that Cathy Jacobs started the show with this month: " Until about 30 years ago, it was a common misconception, even among scientists, that newborns are incapable beings who do little more than sleep, cry and digest food.nbsp; We now know that newborns are competent and have some amazing abilities.nbsp; For example, newborns feel pain, think, dream, differentiate tastes and track a slowly moving object with their eyes.nbsp; Perhaps the most striking example of infants' complex abilities is shown by two-hour-old infants' preference for hearing something their mother read aloud repeatedly before they were born.nbsp; Clearly, many abilities are already finely tuned..."
